Public bug reported:

16.04 on a Thinkpad t450.

Tried Chrome and Chromium from the archive. Both exhibit flicker at
random intervals. Most notable in dynamic pages like tweetdeck.

Tried switching off GPU acceleration in browser and I get different flickering.
Tried changing full screen redirect options as per bug 1442728.
Tried enabling the proprietary intel microcode in software properties.
