Hello!
After the upgrade to the 5.8 series kernel to the 5.11 series kernel, I
have noticed some screen flickering. I had the same problem previously
on Fedora after upgrading to the 5.0 series kernel, but this was not
present on Ubuntu 20.04 on either the 5.4 or 5.8 series kernels. On
Fedora, it was fixed by turning off panel self-refresh on my Dell XPS 13
9380. I can try that again here if you all think it would be a useful
piece of information. In the Fedora bug, it was reported that this
problem is fixed in the 5.13 kernel. Let me know whatever else I can do.
Thanks!
Ben
