This is just a guess, but have you tried adding "i915.enable_psr=0" to the kernel parameters at boot (hit 'e' when the bootloader shows up, add the above snippet right after '...splash=silent quiet' on the same line)? There have been issues with the i915 graphics flickering that have been helped with this, perhaps at the cost of somewhat higher power usage [see e.g. < https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_XPS_13_(7390)>].
Cheers, This seems the easiest suggestion, so I've started with it. The flickering doesn't happen every day, so it may take a while before I know if it works.

Now that you mention it, I have observed some flickering in my laptop after coming back from suspend to ram. I thought it was hardware related, but after reading your post I will observe the log the next time it happens.
But on Leap 15.1
Thanks. Note, though, that the log entry doesn't always appear, only when the flickering is severe (/e.g./, lasting a minute or more, or blacking-out large portions of the screen. On 7/25/20 9:30 PM, Felix Miata wrote:
Does switching from Intel DDX to modesetting DDX or vice versa change anything?

I currently have xorg-x11-driver-video installed and the following xf86-video-* packages: xf86-video-fbdev xf86-video-vesa Am I right that I can switch to the Intel DDX by just installing xf86-video-intel? I notice there's also xf86-video-intel-32bit; is there a reason it should be installed, too? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
