--- Begin Message ---Package: i915 Version: firmware-misc-nonfree Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Since the update to kernel 4.16 I can't prevent my Lenovo Yoga 910 from having severe screen flicker when idle. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Booting with option i.915.enable_rc6=0 prevented the flicker from happening. * What was the outcome of this action? Since kernel 4.16 this does not work anymore. My research shows that the option in question is not included in the firmware anymore. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
