** Description changed: I would like to report a severe graphics regression, involving frequent rainbow-glitching and flickering on a x64 computer with Intel Broadwell 5500U processor w/ integrated graphics. This issue was not present on kernel v4.7.4, which I will continue to use. Due to unfortunate issues with Broadwell integrated graphics support, virtually every kernel build in the 4.8 release chain as well as the newest v4.7.5 kernel have this issue. Dramatic multicolored patches and glitched areas appear frequently when using my computer with these kernels installed. The behavior is very similar to that of the Broadwell graphics issues present in kernel version 4.6.x. Please fix this issue, I don't understand why NEWER kernels are actually causing significant graphical problems with older hardware. + + I am running Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS on an HP Spectre x360 4102dx with an Intel + Broadwell 5500U core i7 processor with integrated intel Broadwell GT2 graphics
