I am having the same issue with a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 10 Model 21CBCTO1WW, CPU Intel i7-1270P with an Intel Iris Xe card.
I run Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and tested all the available kernels, including the latest 6.7 mainline. I also tried all possible combinations of the grub parameters in /etc/default/grub... GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash 915.enable_psr2_sel_fetch=0 i915.enable_psr=0 i915.enable_fbc=0 i915.modset=0 intel_idle.max_cstate=2" I tried with different distros (Fedora, latest Ubuntu, older Ubuntu) with live USB-Stick. The problem with the flickering persist on all the combinations on the internal screen. When I connect an external display via HDMI, the error persists on the internal screen, but the external screen is stable and just fine. I am starting to think that there might be an issue with the resolution or the refresh rate of the internal screen. Currently went back to the official 'linux-generic-hwe-22.04' which is a 6.5.0-14 Kernel uname -a Linux carbon10 6.5.0-14-generic #14~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Nov 20 18:15:30 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux sudo lshw | grep -A2 display *-display description: VGA compatible controller product: Alder Lake-P Integrated Graphics Controller Did anybody have resolved this annoying issue yet? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-hwe-6.2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1958191 Title: [i915] Screen flickering in Ubuntu 22.04 (until i915.enable_dc=0 intel_idle.max_cstate=2 are added) (fixed in 5.17.7 and later) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux-hwe-5.19 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux-hwe-6.2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Lunar: Confirmed Status in linux-hwe-5.19 source package in Lunar: Invalid Status in linux-hwe-6.2 source package in Lunar: Invalid Bug description: Ubuntu 22.04 development branch on kernel 5.15.0-17-generic @ 18/1/2022 Booting into desktop gets heavy screen flickering and disforming (unusable) both booting on xorg and wayland on kernel 5.13 it did not occur so heavy (only little glitches once in a while see bug 1948778) adding the kernel parameter i915.enable_dc=0 intel_idle.max_cstate=2 fixed this i had these same bugs on this machine before: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-hwe/+bug/1838644 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1948778 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 Package: linux-image-5.15.0-17-generic 5.15.0-17.17 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.15.0-17.17-generic 5.15.12 Uname: Linux 5.15.0-17-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu75 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: lotuspsychje 1201 F.... pipewire-media- lotuspsychje 1207 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/seq: lotuspsychje 1193 F.... pipewire CasperMD5CheckResult: unknown CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue Jan 18 04:22:00 2022 Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 004: ID 8087:0025 Intel Corp.
