### S0ix sleep
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
On certain hardware like the Thinkpad T14 Gen 1, you need to enable s0ix sleep support for suspension to work correctly. Use the following command:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```bash
 | 
			
		||||
sudo qvm-features dom0 suspend-s0ix 1
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Default appmenu
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The default apps to show on AppVMs' menu when created can be configured with `qvm-features`.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Example:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```bash
 | 
			
		||||
sudo qvm-features fedora-41 default-menu-items 'org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop org.gnome.Ptyxis.desktop'
 | 
			
		||||
sudo qvm-features fedora-41 netvm-menu-items 'org.gnome.Ptyxis.desktop'
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
sudo qvm-features debian-12 default-menu-items 'org.gnome.Console.desktop org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop'
 | 
			
		||||
sudo qvm-features debian-12 netvm-menu-items 'org.gnome.Console.desktop'
 | 
			
		||||
```

### Lenovo ePrivacy
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Lenovo ePrivacy can be controlled through `/proc/acpi/ibm/lcdshadow`. I use the following shortcuts:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- F5: `sudo bash -c 'echo 1 > /proc/acpi/ibm/lcdshadow'`
 | 
			
		||||
- F6: `sudo bash -c 'echo 0 > /proc/acpi/ibm/lcdshadow'`
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Video player
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
In my experience, VLC works best. Changing video output to X11 video output (XCB) reduces CPU usage by 10% on my Thinkpad P53. See [this link](https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/vlc-video-playback-cpu-usage-improvement/23363).

Qubes AEM currently still requires legacy boot. While the last generation of Intel CPUs with VBIOS to support legacy boot is Coffee Lake officially, I have found that certain Comet Lake Thinkpads still have legacy support. Unfortunately, all of them seems to only support U series CPU. You can check [Lenovo's BIOS simulator](https://download.lenovo.com/bsco/index.html#/) for models with legacy boot support.

		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Alternatively, you should consider Coffee Lake mobile workstation Thinkpads. These have the longest support life cycle outside of the Comet Lake Thinkpads, and they support much more powerful H series CPUs. Perrsonally, I am using a P53 with an i9-9880H.
