Thank you, that clears it up. I’m not as informed on this matter as I used to be in the past, apologies for any assumptions I might have made.
Thanks for the link and the link to the PR, I might try this with a PC or two in time. Do I need Intel Audio for Pipewire to work? I didn’t quite grasp the ramifications of certain parts of the firmware not working such as Audio and Sleep; would I need to find a software solution for Sleep? Also, will this affect C-states by any chance?
That makes a lot of sense. Maybe I was looking at something different in my network at that point. Thanks again!
