If you haven't updated to linux 5.2 yet, you should because it fixed constant flickering when in LFC mode.

This additional patch helps when the monitor goes in and out of LFC mode. It's not fully fixed, but the flickering is a lot less severe. According to the Phoronix article it should indeed land in linux 5.5.

When compiling a kernel you should be able to install it next to the regular one so you can't break your setup. I personally used the linux-mainline package from AUR and added the LFC patch on top.

How big is the improvement? Is the issue completely gone, or is it still there?
The KSP example also reliably triggers the flickering for me, and I am using
the exact same monitor.

These LFC patches are going to be included in the 5.5 kernel, right? Or will
they be included in an earlier kernel version?
