  • Wow, so kinda like chimerism? Though this is on another level. Couldn't find a wiki page but definitely would like to read about it. By the way, while searching for this, I found about XXYY which I also didn't know about.

  • I heard about XYY, XXY and even XXX so was wondering about this one. Since it's still 50/50 (more or less) and it has to contain at least one X, I would guess. Still confused by the article title though.

  • I remember reading something about their sometimes having low amounts of RAM so they do some weird things to make up for it.

    That makes sense. I was doing a similar but opposite thing when I was still using Windows. It comes with hibernate but I never used it so I was removing the swap equivalent of it every time I install it.

    Well, at least have fun with it. Good luck! :)

  • I guess not feasible was a strong word. I saw on a couple forums and it seems it takes around 2 minutes to hibernate if you have that much RAM, even with an NVMe. Probably that's why it's not recommended, which is understandable. Also it says Redhat 8, so it shouldn't be older than 5 years.

    I checked and it seems Bazzite doesn't support hibernation out of the box and you need to disable zram if you want to use it. Kinda weird to me but I never used an immutable distro before so maybe it's related to that.

  • That's interesting. I guess I understand now why my 2 GB swap can get filled rather quickly. After I read that FAQ, I delved a little more and found this. Apparently it's not feasible to use hibernation if you have more than 64 GB RAM, well at least until we got much more faster SSDs it seems.

    Not the same but if you're using KDE on Bazzite, KDE has a restore previous windows option (or something like that). You can use it until find a solution.

  • Firstly, welcome :)

    Secondly, hibernation on Linux requires swap partition 2x size of the RAM. If you didn't set it big enough or did not set at all, hibernation wouldn't work. However if you set it correctly, there should be another reason to consider.

    If you are not sure, you can use this command on terminal to compare your RAM and swap sizes. free -m

  • Yeah, update arriving part is not necessary but it wakes the PC up, checks for updates and install them if there are any, does this every night. And if you disabled auto-sleep it just stays like that until you interfere.
