One interesting observation is that your logs are saying that 60Hz is the preferred native mode of the monitor:
[ 1165.229] (II) modeset(0): First detailed timing is preferred mode [ 1165.229] (II) modeset(0): Preferred mode is native pixel format and refresh rate ...

Maybe it's changing something unusual to go above 60Hz and maybe just the Windows 10 driver is better at handling that, whatever it is. If this is a software bug then it should probably be assigned to the Linux kernel or Xorg modeset driver. Because the details of the pixel layout are only known and controllable there. ** Package changed: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1852166 Title: [nouveau] Pixel pattern error at 120Hz or 144Hz, but 60Hz works To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1852166/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
