Thanks for the bug report.

Most intermittent black screen flickers are caused by a loss of display
signal integrity. It's especially common at high resolutions or refresh
rates (I notice you're using 4K). That can usually be fixed by replacing
the display cable and/or taking the dock out of the equation. So three
things to try:

1. A new (higher grade) cable.

2. Another new cable that bypasses the dock (USB-C to DisplayPort or
whatever you need).

3. Next time the problem happens, immediately run this command:

   journalctl -b0 > journal.txt

   and attach the resulting text file here, in case something relevant
is being logged.

  After upgrade to mantic, running with primary laptop display and
