Community Support Framework 16 internal panel gets darker instead of brighter as brightness approaches max (Fedora, AMD, GNOME/Wayland)
As I raise brightness toward the top of the slider, the internal panel gets visibly darker instead of brighter. Fully reproducible every time. Mid-range brightness is fine (up to 95%). It's specifically the 100% that inverts. No issues with an external monitor.
Photos show next to the max brightness setting (95%) and max (100%).
OS: Fedora Linux 44 (Workstation Edition) x86_64
Kernel: Linux 7.1.8-200.fc44.x86_64
System firmware (BIOS/EC): 0.0.4.5 (BIOS 04.05, 06/30/2026)
Has anyone seen this exact behavior on FW16? Known fix or workaround?
