Title:
Kernel 6.8 causes the screen to intermittently go black for several
seconds
Status in linux-signed-hwe-6.8 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Since kernel 6.8, the screen has been going black intermittently and
unpredictably for several seconds. Sometimes it happens several times
in a row over half a minute or so, and other times just once. It
happens regularly.
dmesg shows this type of error every time:

This is quite possibly connected to bug #2049248 because the
workaround that has been pointed out to me works also for this bug.
WORKAROUND:
From what I understand, Canonical's kernel has had some drivers
removed, causing this problem. I am now using the kernel as provided
by Zabbly [1], which is Canonical's kernel but with the drivers left
in.
