Screen flicker so much that its hard to watch. Looks like intel buffers do not set correctly and flickers between old and new image. OS: Arch linux Problem exists for at least 3 months now. Hardware: MSI GE72 2QC Apache 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 5600 (rev 0a) 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107M [GeForce GTX 960M] (rev a2) 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Host Bridge - DMI (rev 0a) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U PCI Express x16 Controller (rev 0a) Running on intel drivers, on nvidia efect is the same because it's a hybrid so intel still handle final render. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54627341/flicker/MOV_0006.mp4 You see that mostly on non-black parts. My first guess was that it is backlight pwm problem, i did try that, but then i saw some strange "ghosts" on screen, for example when image change, you still see flickering old image: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54627341/flicker/MOV_20161107115931_TSV.mp4 And it is horrible: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54627341/flicker/MOV_0009.mp4 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54627341/flicker/MOV_20161107212024_TSV.mp4 And the flicker speed and intensity change depending on laptop load.
