Thanks Josh. I *think* that there are two issues you are facing: 1. The nouveau kernel driver doesn't support your Nvidia GPU properly, which is why "I have to boot with `nouveau.modeset=0`, otherwise boot hangs at Plymouth after entering my disk encryption password.". But that doesn't matter

Thanks. Next I would like to confirm if this is really a pure Intel bug. Just for testing, can you please try uninstalling the Nvidia driver, reboot and then log into "Ubuntu on Wayland"? Does using a Wayland session avoid the bug? Please also run 'xrandr' in the Wayland session and send us the

I'm using only one monitor (the one built-in to the laptop), at times I use an external monitor as well, but this problem persists without it plugged in. After removing that block (i.e. using the modesetting driver), I get jagged tearing almost everywhere. Both Chrome and Totem tear very

Thanks for those files. I can see two possible problems (which may not be problems but should be checked): 1. You are configured to use both the Nvidia driver version 410, and are asking Xorg to configure the old Intel driver. In theory this should be possible but OpenGL is really a very simple

Thanks. I wonder if this bug is directly related to "using Intel graphics on my hybrid Nvidia laptop". Since regular Intel GPU users never seem to see such problems. Although this is also one of the first bug reports about a Coffee Lake GPU I have seen too, so it might be an Intel problem... 1.
