  Screen flickers on XPS 13 9350/9550 (Intel Skylake/Broadwell GPU)

Status in Linux:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  *** Temporary workaround ***
  Install Kernel from the following location:
  - http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-yakkety/

  OR
  Perform the following:
  - $ apt-add-repository "deb 
http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-kernel-team/ppa/ubuntu yakkety main"
  - $ echo -en "Package: *\nPin: release 
o=LP-PPA-canonical-kernel-team-ppa\nPin-Priority: -1\n" >> 
/etc/apt/preferences.d/canonical-kernel-team-ubuntu-ppa-yakkety
  - $ apt update
  - $ apt install linux-image-extra-4.6.0-6-generic 
linux-headers-4.6.0-6-generic linux-tools-4.6.0-6-generic
  ```
  There was a typo in instructions (/etc/preferences.d should have been 
/etc/apt/preferences.d).
  As result you might have upgraded Linux META packages and therefor you won't 
receive proper upgrades of Xenial native Linux packages (hoping they will ever 
contain the fix).
  I suggest you move 
/etc/preferences.d/canonical-kernel-team-ubuntu-ppa-yakkety to 
/etc/apt/preferences.d/ and downgrade related packages:
  $ apt update
  $ apt install linux-headers-generic/xenial-updates 
linux-tools-generic/xenial-updates linux-image-generic/xenial-updates
  ```

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 451282] Re: display is fully dimmed after resume from suspend

Same here in Ubuntu 16.04 on a Dell Inspiron 1540 laptop

Title:
  display is fully dimmed after resume from suspend

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in xfce4-power-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  When I resume from suspend (while on AC power), the laptop display
  brightness is set to it's lowest level, even when I had the brightness
  turned all the way up before. Interestingly enough, this only seems to
  happen on the first suspend after a reboot. Once I have turned up the
  display brightness again using the function keys, the next
  suspend/resume cycle will work normally (until the next reboot).
  Finally, when I use the function keys to increase the brightness after
  a suspend, I see that the brightness level in the notification bar
  indicates that the brightness is set to the maximum. Only after
  repeated adjustments with the function keys, the indicator 'resets'
  and reflects the true display brightness level. I'm using the
  proprietary nvidia display driver, but I've never had this problem
  before in Jaunty. Also, in case it makes a difference, I've set my
  laptop to suspend on lid closure since that's the way I generally
  suspend the laptop.
