"Hot" area on display

I have a 13 with the higher res, rounded corner display.

When the screen is all white, a small section on the bottom is noticeably brighter in an area about 1cm in diameter. This bright spot disappears if I remove the screen bezel. With the bezel removed, if I lightly press the bottom of the screen the patch returns. So, I guess the bezel is applying some pressure to the screen? Is there anything I can do to overcome this?

13 just arrived

Plugged ram in and an NVMe that already had fedora 44 on from my thinkpad, connected keyboard, switched on, booted straight in. Nice.

2 fewer cores than my Thinkpad so just running Geekbench to see if I've lost any juice! Apparently not, almost twice as fast multi core and 65% faster single core.

The display is fantastic. Just working out lowest usable scaling. 125% might be too low...

Particularly enjoyed being able to put a USB c on the right ; better for my current setup.

Keyboard is the only let down but I was expecting that.

Transplant Debian Nvme from Thinkpad P14s AMD Gen 2 to Framework 13 AMD?

I feel like I already know the answer lol but what are the chances of this working?

Thinkpad P14s to FW13

As title,

I need a windows machine alongside my Linux machine. Plan to relegate the thinkpad to windows duties.

What do I need to consider? I don't use the trackpoint. I do connect to a lenovo monitor using 1 USB c cable, can I still do that?

Thanks

I moved to Debian from Arch because I HAVE to use Capella (an mbse tool, there are no alternatives) and its reliance on gtk and webgtk just caused so many problems. I knew it worked on Debian with gnome son that's what I installed and it works. I'm not getting on with gnome though and would like to use niri or plasma or xfce. Does anyone know if I'm likely to have gtk issues using any of these? I realise I am asking a very specific question!

Hi,

For the last few weeks I have been hosting a bunch of services successfully. All sat behind nginx, certbot doing its thing. Great.

This morning accessing my top level domain from within my home network (same network the server is on) everything stopped and it seems that instead of my normal SSL being served my router (a pile of crap TPLink Deco device) is serving its own certificate instead.

If I disconnect my phone from wifi then I can access everything just fine so it's something to do with me being on the same network I guess?

So, two questions:

  1. Any idea why this might have suddenly happened?

  2. More importantly how can I fix it!

Thanks for any advice
