Hello! I'm kinda baffled by this problem I'm facing. Hardware may or may not be the right section for this but I'm in the dark and it doesn't seem like a software problem...
So here we go:
Made the switch from OSX to Leap on my workhorse Macbook about a month ago, I'm fairly experienced with using Lynux distros but not opensuse (yet). I noticed that the battery life was immediately shortened with this new install (not a huge deal), then when the computer is locked and closed it still heats up like it's running at full power (kinda strange). My solution as of late has been to simply shut it off when it's not going to be in use for a while, which is probably a good habit, but I'm still wondering if there's some kind of background process that runs and if it's possible to get that to suspend along with the OS. Maybe whatever sensor tells the system the screen is closed isn't functioning correctly? Or, could the OS not be sending signals to the hardware to go to sleep?
Other than that everything is functioning as it should. The system monitor isn't reporting any kind of strange behavior, and all the other hardware transferred over to Leap easily.
Any suggestions, topics, and/or rabbit holes you have in mind would be greatly appreciated!

Some basic technical specs on what I'm running:
Early 2014 Macbook Pro 13
Intel Core i7-5557U CPU 3.1GHz
8 GiB RAM
Intel Iris Graphics 6100
Samsung Electronics SATA controller
Broadcom BCM43602 802.11ac Wireless LAN
Leap 15.1
KDE Plasma: 5.12.8
KDE Frameworks: 5.55.0
Qt Version: 5.9.7
Kernel: 4.12.14-lp151.28.36-default
64 bit
PS:
As I was doing to trouble-shooting before submitting this I checked the kernel messages and found this block of alerts reoccurring pretty often:
[ 9811.965966] CPU1: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 6589)
[ 9811.965967] CPU3: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 6589)
[ 9811.965969] CPU2: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 14055)
[ 9811.965971] CPU0: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 14055)
[ 9811.965972] CPU3: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 14055)
[ 9811.965975] CPU1: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 14055)
Does that look like it could be an issue? Could it be related to the one I mentioned at the top?
