correctly
Classification: I don't know

Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org

--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=183584&action=edit
stuck at 50%
SUMMARY
After updating to 6.4, setting brightness to 0% is like 8%, increasing to 1%
make it dimmer (actually what 0% should have looked like).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. set brightness to 0%
OBSERVED RESULT
0% is very bright (like 8% brightness) than it is supposed to be.
EXPECTED RESULT
normal, 0% is very dim and gets bright when increasing the slider.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Fedora Linux 41
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.16.0
Qt Version: 6.8.3
Kernel Version: 6.15.7-100.fc41.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Not sure if relevant, but I think the issue is with GPU, after updating (I was
on 6.3.3), it worked normally, but I think I was using an integrated graphics
(AMD), when I was checking "About this system" in settings, it didn't show the
discrete GPU (Nvidia). Now it does show both. I also checked "System Monitor"
and it is stuck on 50% whatever I do, and in "History" tab "GPU 2 usage" is 0%
and GPU 3 usage is 100%" always.
