Screen flickering on devices with Intel graphics
A possible cause can be buggy Intel graphics power management. You can try disabling it by adding i915.enable_rc6=0 boot flag.
To do this from a running system and make it permanent, run the following terminal command:
- EDITOR=gedit sudo -e /etc/default/grub
File /etc/default/grub will be opened in gedit with administrator privileges (so be careful with the next step).
- Find the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line
- Change it to look like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i915.enable_rc6=0"
- Save the file.
- Run the following command in your terminal application:
sudo update-grub
Restart for all this to take effect.
NOTE: Instead of gedit you can use a text editor of your choice.
