I just bought a Fusion Serie from PCSpecialist and I'm having screen issue when running Ubuntu (tested 20.04 and 21.04) or PopOS (tested 21.04)



  • built-in screen display is blinking when the mouse cursor is moving within its display area using the touchpad or a mouse

  • if I press the left button while moving the cursor the display does not blink

  • when using an external monitor its display is fine, but not the integrated screen one (in duplicated or extended mode)

  • I recorded the screen and the video is not showing the blinks (although the screen was blinking while recording)


What I tried:



  • changing screens resolutions

  • enabling / disabling PopOS HiDPI daemon

  • use different kernels (from 5.11 to 5.14)


Here are the laptop specs:



  • Chassis & Display: Fusion Studio Series : Écran large LED mat 14 pouces 90 Hz sRGB 95 % WQXGA (2880 x 1800)

  • Processor (CPU): Processeur Quad Core Intel® Core® i7 11370H (3,3 GHz, 4,8 GHz Turbo)

  • Memory (RAM): 16 Go Corsair 2933 MHz SODIMM DDR4 (2 x 8 Go)

  • Graphics Card: Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics

  • 1st M.2 SSD Drive: 500 Go SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS M.2, PCIe NVMe


And some commands outputs (from PopOS 21.04):

I don't really know which potential fixes I should start with therefore any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks


NOTE: I also have W10 installed along side PopOS and W10 is working fine.

Just had this problem on the exact same processor. It turned out that an Intel power-optimization feature has to be turned off via grub.


Add "i915.enable_psr=0" to the default GRUB command line in /etc/defaults/grub, so it reads:


GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.enable_psr=0"

The flickering is gone after activating this GRUB.


$ sudo update-grub
