[11:27] schestowitz[TR2][11:27] schestowitz[TR2]Until recently, my Slimbook Executive laptop has worked beautifully. For a year, it had a spotless record, it worked elegantly, without any major issues or errors. Then, in a span of just one month, so many things went badly, a result of poorly tested and integrated firmware and system updates that turned my sweet machine into a nerdy sandbox. In fact, I don't care why or how, the [11:27] schestowitz[TR2] end result was: keyboard issues, mouse issues, network management issues, power management issues.
[11:27] schestowitz[TR2]My tribulations are outlined in three progressive worse long-term reports on my usage of this machine, from the mildly skeptical fifth to angry sixth to fully disenchanted and bitter seventh article on this topic. Sure, a fresh wave of updates did resolve most of the problems, but not all. Power management remains iffy. However, I think I'm starting to see a pattern, and there may [11:27] schestowitz[TR2] be some workarounds. If you're a Kubuntu 22.04 user, and your Plasma box is experiencing some weird power management problems, I might be able to help.
