Without mirroring, please try reducing the resolution of the external monitor. Does that stop the flicker?
** Summary changed: - [ASUS GL552VW] Screen flickering on external monitor + [ASUS GL552VW] Loss of signal (black screen) on external monitor -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1975872 Title: [ASUS GL552VW] Loss of signal (black screen) on external monitor Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: External screen flickers on and off (image is present and then signal is lost, flickering is random, but very often, ~3 times in 10 seconds) on a fresh installation. Details: - I'm using a laptop (ASUS GL552VW) with external monitor connected via HDMI. The HDMI port is connected to my iGPU, Intel HD 530 (there is no way to make that HDMI work with NVIDIA GTX 960M in my laptop). - Nothing was installed after installing the OS - i connected to the Internet while installing the system and marked the option to download the updates. - I had that issue on Windows 10 - I fixed it by installing a latest Intel GPU driver from laptop manufacturer's (ASUS) site, uninstalling drivers installed by Windows - they were the latest Intel drivers. - Internal screen works fine. - If I mirror external and internal monitor, external isn't flickering, but internal monitor's resolution is lower that external's one.
