Title:
Xserver Display flickers when mouse pointer is inside narrow
horizontal range band (kernel related)
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
My machine information is following :
HP EliteBook 840 G3
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Skylake GT2 [HD Graphics 520]
xrandr -q active mode on laptop display : 1368x768 60.01
Tried using 6.8.8-060808 kernel (instead of the lubuntu 24.04 default shipped
kernel 6.8.0-31), same issue.
Rolling back the kernel to 6.7 fixed the problem,maybe there were some video
driver changes from kernel 6.7 to 6.8 ?
While using the 6.8 kernel I did some experiments:
disabled picom in startup , no effect
Tried changing display resolution, just moves vertical position of band.
(at the above resolution 1368x768 vertical mouse pointer flicker range is
around 640 ( measured running watch -t -n 0.0001 xdotool getmouselocation from
a bash terminal)
Tried moving refresh rate slightly around 60 Hz by creating a new
modeline using cvt tool and adding new mode with xrandr, no effect.
tried connecting external display on laptop VGA port and duplicating
screen and the issue seems to disappear.
tried capturing a video of the desktop using ffmpeg with x11grab, but
it does not show the issue.
I attached a short video of the laptop display flicker I recorded
using my phone
