Public bug reported:
When I play a video with mpv (or e.g. Firefox), it works just fine.
When this video is fullscreened (e.g. in mpv by pressing f), the screen
quickly turns off, and switches resolution modes in such a rate the
screen is unusable.
The native resolution of the screen is 1440p, but Xorg somehow increases
the size to 3424x1926 for the fullscreen, then quickly switches back to
1440p, before increasing it again.
As soon as the video is de-fullscreened (by pressing f again in mpv, or
esc in Firefox), the funny resolution switching stops and the system is
usable again.
This also happens with the modesetting 2d-driver. This does not happen
with Wayland.
This can be seen in the Xorg-log:

framebuffer size:

lead to less power savings than a non-reduced-size. Try to increase
stolen memory size if available in BIOS.
