I found a "kind of work-around": in grafic-mode, switch the mode several times forward and backward, e.g.:
xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1440x900 sleep 2 xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1680x1050 put the commands into a script, run that script 2 ... 5 times, until the flickering suddenly stops. BUT: when the screen awakes from "sleep" -> the flickering starts again! so, additionally I may: disable the screen sleep-mode That is NOT a satisfactory solution, but .... what to do else? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772234 Title: Ubuntu 16.04 Radeon X1600 screen flickering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1772234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
