Changes:
- SAM:
- Update DTX driver state after resume.
- Add DTX Documentation, misc. fixes, and cleanup.
- IPTS:
This implements a new and refined UAPI interface that should improve
stability during suspend and move some responsibility into userspace,
making the driver simpler.
It also fixes some sleep issues due to improper shutdown of the device.
Shortlog:

Features / What's Working
See the feature matrix for more information about each device.
Disclaimer
- For the most part, things are tested on a Surface Book 2. While most things are reportedly fully working on other devices, your mileage may vary. Please look at the issues list for possible exceptions.
Installation and Setup
We provide package repositories for the patched kernel and other utilities. Please refer to the detailed installation and setup guide. There, you may also find device-specific caveats.
If you want to compile the kernel yourself (e.g. if your distribution is not supported), please have a look at the wiki.
Additional Information
Notes
- If you are getting stuck at boot when loading the ramdisk, you need to install the Processor Microcode Firmware for Intel CPUs (usually found under Additional Drivers in Software and Updates).
- Using TLP can cause slowdowns, laggy performance, and occasional hangs if not configured properly! You have been warned.
- If you want to use hibernate instead of suspend, you need to create a swap partition or file, please follow your distribution's instructions (or here).
