[Bug 1179905] New: Laptop screen flickers sporadically
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1179905 Bug ID: 1179905 Summary: Laptop screen flickers sporadically Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: max@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I just installed a Dell Latitude E5270 laptop and noticed that the builtin screen flickers sporadically� for a fraction of a second on both, text console and X. It looks a bit like a lose monitor cable, but I can exclude a hardware problem, because it also happens when I don't even touch the device, but it does not happen under Windows 10 that came preinstalled on the device. I discussed this with Stefan Dirsch and he suspected a bug in KMS. Please let me know what other information you need for tracking this down. ___ � intervals vary between a few seconds and several minutes -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If it's i915 driver, you can try some option to disable the power management stuff, e.g. passing i915.enable_dc=0 i915.enable_fbc=0 enable_ips=0 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
