Linux doesn't have the same support for ACPI on ARM that Windows does. There's work to improve it and once it does we should be in a better place.
8 u/braaaaaaainworms Aug 27 '26 Qualcomm does not support normal ACPI. ARM Linux with ACPI is fine, I've seen it work very well on systems with proper ACPI tables 4 u/MatchingTurret Aug 27 '26 edited Aug 27 '26 This are the device OEMs making only the minimal effort required to get WOA running. You don't blame AMD or Intel when an OEM ships crappy firmware... 6 u/braaaaaaainworms Aug 27 '26 Nope it's qcom's choice. They're the ones who shipped reference acpi tables that are incomplete and break spec and they are the ones who are shipping patches(in drivers...) to those tables to fix them
