Jacob Doherty, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
1) To see if this is already resolved, could you please test http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and advise to the results? 2) To clarify, does the following provide a WORKAROUND: sudo apt-get purge xserver-xorg-video-intel sudo rm /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf (for those who created this file before) reboot 3) Does using UXA instead of SNA provide a WORKAROUND? 4) Did this issue not occur in a previous release of Ubuntu, or Chromium/Chrome? 5) Could you please provide the full computer model as noted on the sticker of the computer itself (not from the Bug Description, or the result of a terminal command)? 6) If you undo all of the non-default kernel parameters you are using, does this influence this issue? ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Description changed: - This is additional debug information as requested for this bug: - - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- - intel/+bug/1586539 - - - Ubuntu 16.04.1 (xenial) - Chrome 55.0.2883.87 - Kernel: 3.10.18 - - X.Org X Server 1.18.4 - xorg-server 2:1.18.4-0ubuntu0.2 - Current version of pixman: 0.33.6 + Chromium and Chrome 55.0.2883.87 flickering.
