Worrying flickering

Framework Laptop 16 Linux
1

I was browsing the Register on Firefox about 15 minutes when my screen started flickering to a flat grey background whenever I scrolled the page. It stopped after a while, and hasn’t done it in a while.

Is this a known symptom of something failing in the computer? A known bug in the Linux AMD GPU drivers? Got my Framework 16 a few weeks ago and don’t want my computer to suddenly become useless because I got a lemon of an iGPU, as otherwise I’ve really liked it.

Hi,
I thought my fw16 was flickering. It turned just to be the auto brightness adjustment.
If you put your finger over the sensor near where the camera is, you can force an adjustment.
To fix it, I just went into the setting under display or power and disabled auto brightness
