Mark Stosberg<p>The Framework 16 laptop detects when it's booted partially assembled. It boots into a special mode to walk you through completing the assembly. The screen updates to reflect your progress and prompt the next step. This requires no tools to complete. Impressive!

DJGummikuh<p>Wtf today my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Framework16" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Framework16</span></a> simply froze its graphics. It does so two times. The first time I can get it unstuck by changing to a TTY with Ctrl+Alt+F2 and then back, but the second time I can only reboot. Sound and Mousepointer are still working, but I can't click anything and videos are not updating any longer. WTF is going on here?</p>

Royce Williams<p>If you are plugging a portable USB-C powered monitor into a Framework 16 laptop and the monitor keeps rebooting ... it's not getting enough power.</p><p>You have to use a USB-C module that's plugged into one of some specific sockets -- the <del>two</del> four "furthest back" on either side, kinda closest to where you would normally expect to power a laptop. The front two won't work.</p><p>And: "Ports 1,2,4,5 are shared on a first come first serve basis. So they are 1.5A by default, but one port from any of these can negotiate 3A over PD. Once that is taken, the other ports are limited to 1.5A. Ports 3,6 are 900mA."</p><p>There's a flyer that comes in the box about this, but I didn't make the connection (pun intended) until the symptom popped up.</p><p>And a KB article: <br><a href="https://knowledgebase.frame.work/expansion-card-slot-functionality-on-framework-laptop-16-rkUjGm7cn" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">knowledgebase.frame.work/expan</span><span class="invisible">sion-card-slot-functionality-on-framework-laptop-16-rkUjGm7cn</span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FrameworkLaptop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FrameworkLaptop</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Framework16" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Framework16</span></a></p>
