Hi!
On my framework 13 with the original panel (the one that shipped with the 11th gen) , I’ve recently noticed a new issue and I have no idea what might be at fault for this. After a few minutes of displaying something (doesn’t matter the brightness), it seems like the pixels get temporarily stuck on some parts of the screen.
Initially I though it was a panel self refresh issue and promptly turned of that by removing the kernel param for enabling it, but that has not lead to any succes. Aditionally I’ve first noticed this after no hardware/software change in like a week, but it might have started happening a lot longer ago. I did try reseating the cable, I haven’t yet done a motherboard reset.
Any idea of what I could do to save the panel? Or should I consider that is going to die soon.
You might try one of the supported Linux ditros to help rule out it being a driver/OS issue.
You can try either an Ubuntu or Fedora USB and boot to a Live session. If it persists then my suspicion would be that it is hardware issue. Luckily the panels are pretty inexpensive. You could even update it to the newest panel that has a bit better specs not to mention a matte screen vs the glossy original one.
Uh oh, that sounds like something in the panel is soon to go out.
There is another end of the display cable that could be reseated but that might be a stretch here. The display has to be removed to get to the connector on the back of the panel.
Might be time to shop for a replacement panel, or roll the dice and see how long it holds up?
On an unrelated note they do have some nice translucent bezels that have now come out. To give it a little fresher look or dash of color.
I purchased the translucent one and am pleased with how it changed the look. Let us know how it turns out.
