Rendering of the windows can be handled by the integrated Intel-graphics, and it is recommended to not install Nvidia drivers if unnecessary as functions such as booting up, connecting a second monitor, battery life and overall system-stability will greatly suffer.

# systemd-inhibit -what=handle-suspend-key sleep 1h KernelĪppending net.ifnames=0 to the kernel parameters is recommended if you are planning to use the installation for penetration-testing as the wireless adapter names will be quite long by default. Use this to inhibit the handling of the suspend key. It is a virtual, firmware-handled key and will be triggered when using one of the #Unmarked keybinds, which would suspend your device. There is also a sleep button/suspend key. See nf(5) for more information on handling specific keys. Holding the physical shutdown button for more than three seconds will force the system to shutdown. The firmware will send many power button presses, so your machine will most likely only take a few seconds to power off because systemd kills the process/unit it is waiting for when the power button is pressed. I’ll cover the 4 main problems I’ve got with it in this review. This power button will be triggered when your device runs out of battery. Acer’s Helios 300 might be one of the worst gaming laptop I’ve tested in 2021 so far. The other detected power button seems to be a virtual, firmware-handled button. Pressing the power button should log an event. # stdbuf -o0 evemu-record /dev/input/event3 > event3 # systemd-inhibit -what=handle-power-key sleep 1h You can verify this by inhibiting the handling of the power button In this case, LNXPWRBN:00 ( /dev/input/event3) is the "real", physical power button. ├─/sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input3
