Anyone have experience with color calibration on linux? Specifically with gnome?
The gnome docs suggest a pantone huey is the best supported and cheapest option. I can find them on ebay for around $20. Will I regret not going with a more expensive option?
Oof... replacing the liquid metal with PTM thermal interface on the Framework Laptop 16 looks to be quite an ordeal.
Not sure if I really want to go through all of that at this point.

Thanks to @alexhaydock for the impetus and finds!
Upgraded. Let's see what this AMD Ryzen can do over the Intel board it was rocking before. #FrameworkLaptop #Fedora #Linux
If you are plugging a portable USB-C powered monitor into a Framework 16 laptop and the monitor keeps rebooting ... it's not getting enough power.
You have to use a USB-C module that's plugged into one of some specific sockets -- the two four "furthest back" on either side, kinda closest to where you would normally expect to power a laptop. The front two won't work.
And: "Ports 1,2,4,5 are shared on a first come first serve basis. So they are 1.5A by default, but one port from any of these can negotiate 3A over PD. Once that is taken, the other ports are limited to 1.5A. Ports 3,6 are 900mA."
There's a flyer that comes in the box about this, but I didn't make the connection (pun intended) until the symptom popped up.

Looks like I made the right decision cancelling my #FrameworkLaptop motherboard order: https://community.frame.work/t/framework-laptop-13-amd-ryzen-ai-300-series-not-charging-with-some-chargers/68327
This is cool, really hope it is something like the #FrameworkLaptop of cars with open standard components etc #ev #evs #electricvehicles - I love the way they have turned away from the “let’s make a phone on wheels” idea.

I recently got a #FrameworkLaptop 13 and am very happy with it. I got one with the AMD 7040 series and even though they officially support #fedoralinux and #ubuntu, I put #debian 12 and it is working very well.
Placed an order for a new laptop before tariffs jack prices up too high. #FrameworkLaptop
Let's finish upgrading my laptop!

The Framework Laptop 12 goes up for pre-order on April 9th. Framework's first laptop with a convertible tablet-style design, touchscreen, and stylus support will be positioned as an entry-level laptop, but pricing hasn't been revealed yet. #FrameworkLaptop12 #FrameworkLaptop https://frame.work/blog/framework-laptop-12-pre-orders-open-next-week
Are Here #framework users which can recommend dockingstations which allow you to start a #framework16 laptop by pushing a button on the dockingstation? #frameworklaptop
Or can @frameworkcomputer directly recommend one?
I am planning on streaming the mainboard replacement for my #FrameworkLaptop, but to do so I'll need a computer at the table where I'm going to do the work - can't do it at the desktop, the desk is (rightly) organized around my wife's work stuff. So - welcome back, cursed computer! The #Ubuntu #Surface Pro 3 returns, in all its glory. This is still a pretty nice device, despite its wear and tear from nearly a decade of service. Solidly built, nice action on the keyboard, beautiful screen. #linux #microsoft #framework #streaming
Since I am in Rome for a couple of days, I decided to come to work at the Library of the Senate of the Italian Republic this fine morning.
The library staff is not friendly at all, but the place is crazy.
I was asked what kind of laptop this is, and of course I proudly replied: “it’s a @frameworkcomputer, you should get one ”

@eri even for a #Laptop or #Tablet I consider the #FrameworkDesktop a total "#WontBuy!" on my end, as it has less #Upgradeability and #Repiarability than a #Lenovo #X230Tablet or #Fairphone #FP3plus, mich less anything I consider "#Desktop" hardware.
It's really sad when #DIYperks put in more effort than an entire company at designing a Desktop!
Alright, so. Recently, about once a day, my #FrameworkLaptop 16 has been doing ... this.
This results in the loss of all USB.
Which includes the internal keyboard, any external keyboards, any bluetooth keyboards... basically, everything except the trackpad, which is HID-over-I2C, and the power button, which is wired to the cros EC. I wind up having to hard-power-cycle the machine.
I'm resisting the urge to throw this annoyingly bendy laptop out a window. Anybody got any ideas for how to debug this? @frameworkcomputer ?

New webcam module installed in my #FrameworkLaptop 16 and definitely looks like potato-y, even under the usual cruddy lighting.
Getting the bezel off probably took longer than it probably should have and I really, really, really dislike dealing with flat flex cables.
