Some form of spatio-temporal dithering has been enabled. This is causing a shimmering effect and visible dithering patterns (like woven textile) which are noticeable on photographs and areas of similar colour. 1px borders in the UI can appear to have a "marching ants" effect. The effect is visible under Xorg if the displayed colours are suitable to trigger it. The effect is also visible in a virtual console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) if suitable colours are displayed, but it seems that the presence of the effect in virtual consoles predates its appearance under Xorg and the reporting of this bug, going back at least as far as 4.13.0-31, but with no reason to believe it does not go back further (besides lack of testing). Reverting from 4.13.0-43 by booting 4.13.0-41 eliminates the temporal dithering in Xorg. This occurs on a (presumed) 6bpp laptop LCD panel, so dithering is necessary, but in previous kernels only a form of spatial dithering is applied, which is less visually obvious. Concurrent with the temporal dithering, I have also noticed general poor graphical performance with the affected kernels. E.g. 50fps and 60fps video playback is choppy, sometimes slow redraw and other graphical glitches on UI elements. Like the temporal dithering, these additional problems disappear if I revert to 4.13.0-41. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.18 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: patrick 1976 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 EcryptfsInUse: Yes HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=72e179a8-b27c-42d3-9523-8f1cceacaa64 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-09-16 (634 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) MachineType: PC Specialist Limited N350DW Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.13.0-45-generic root=UUID=deeef076-c1e1-47ec-8ee4-d3b56fa179f9 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.13.0-45.50~16.04.1-generic 4.13.16 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-4.13.0-45-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-4.13.0-45-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.157.19 Tags: xenial xenial Uname: Linux 4.13.0-45-generic x86_64 UnreportableReason: The report belongs to a package that is not installed.
