FW12 Display Flickering

Framework Laptop 12
39

  • Seeing this on celluloid? Seeing this on games or just about anything full screen?

    • Haven’t even opened a video player; the flickering on mine happens regardless of what’s open (after the SDDM log-in screen)

  • Seeing this on BIOS as well? Y/N (if yes, this needs to be in a ticket with this thread linked)

    • Nope.

  • KDE Plasma Version?

    • Happens on both Plasma 6.4.5 (NixOS 25.11 and Fedora 42) and 6.3.6 (Ubuntu 25.04)

  • Distro/Kernel?

    • On my laptop, this is reproducible on NixOS 25.11, Fedora 42 and Ubuntu 25.04 (once updated). This would be kernels 6.14.0 and 6.16.7.
