This is the exact issue I've been having on my Dell XPS 15 9575 with Intel HD Graphics 630 with an encrypted partition. I have had the issue since upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04 from 21.10. This issue has been present on every 5.15 kernel since I installed 22.10. My workaround up to this point has been to boot into 5.13.0-41-generic.
Adding "i915.enable_dc=0 intel_idle.max_cstate=2" from [1] did not work for me. Adding "i915.enable_psr=0" from [2] did not work for me. What finally worked was uncommenting "GRUB_GFXMODE=" and adding "1920x1440" from [3].

Same here...). After the initial grub menu, the kernel loads and boots. There are a few lines of log when the screen is in text mode. As soon as the plymouth screen comes in, the screen starts flickering massively. Nothing appeared on the screen except horizontal lines. I have an encrypted partition, so I type in the password and then the screen goes to flickering lines in color when Wayland starts. I tried different kernels: - 5.17.8: failed - 5.15.x: all failed (from Ubuntu 22.04) - 5.13.19: works and back to normal I found the following errors in the logs: * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* Atomic update failure on pipe A (start=43426 end=43427) time 300 us, min 2146, max 2159, scanline start 2131, end 2171 * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] Finished loading DMC firmware i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_04.bin (v1.4) * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] [ENCODER:102:DDI B/PHY B] is disabled/in DSI mode with an ungated DDI clock, gate it * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] [ENCODER:113:DDI C/PHY C] is disabled/in DSI mode with an ungated DDI clock, gate it * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun So the problem is > 5.13.x series I temporarily solved it by downgrading to 5.13.19 from ubuntu mainline on a newly updated ubuntu 22.04!
