Description Neal Gompa 2026-04-16 16:15:56 UTC
1. Please describe the problem:
With Fedora 44 kernel builds, the Framework 12's auto-rotation feature does not work at all. In Fedora KDE, it means the tablet mode has reduced functionality. It works with Fedora 43 kernels, even of the same versions.

2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel:
6.19.12-300.fc44

3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue
   *first* appear?  Old kernels are available for download at
   https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 :

It worked previously with 6.19.11-200.fc43. It appears that F43 kernels are fine, but F44 ones aren't.


4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce
   the issue below:

Install Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop Edition 44 and fold the laptop so it enters tablet mode. Attempt to rotate it, it will not respond properly like it does with Fedora 43.


5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the
   Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by
   ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``:

It does not. It works properly with 7.0.0-62.fc45.

6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?:
No.

7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log
   for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the
   issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.

Reproducible: Always
