Having this issue as well. Blinking happens on mini displayport not on mini HDMI (running on Intel NUC with dual monitor setup). Some applications trigger the blinking more often than others. Blinking occurs every few minutes when working in a terminal, but it can happen multiple times in a row. Switching to (or away from) the terminal triggers the bug more often than just working in the terminal. $ cat /proc/version_signature Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547619 Title: Intermittent screen blinking with 4k external mini display port with 4.4 kernels Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Bug description: When using an external 4K monitor plugged into the mini display port on my Dell XPS 13 9343 using both the laptop screen and the external monitor (external monitor is left and laptop screen right), when using all of the following kernels: 4.4.0-2.16-generic 4.4.0-4.19-generic 4.4.0-6.21-generic 4.4.0-7.22-generic the external monitor will sometimes blink off for about a second or two, then back on.

Hi, just to add some info to this really annoying bug. I am using external monitors connected through a display port hub which in turn connects to my laptop mini display port. What I noticed is that this only happens when my monitors are at the 1920 x 1080 resolution.

What is weird is this seems to only happen when typing into a gnome-terminal as opposed to firefox or evolution. Simply changing to a gnome-terminal and typing into it doesn't cause the blinking, but it might happen immediately or it might take several minutes. 4.3.0-7.18-generic worked fine and I can go hours and hours in a gnome- terminal with no issues.

I have booted into this kernel: $ cat /proc/version_signature Ubuntu 4.4.0-0.10Commit3b7e590bf-generic 4.4.0 Since the bug doesn't always show itself right away, I will want to use the kernel for at least several hours. I'll report back as soon as I see the bug or after using the computer throughout the day on Monday. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547619 Title: Intermittent screen blinking with 4k external mini display port with 4.4 kernels Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Bug description: When using an external 4K monitor plugged into the mini display port on my Dell XPS 13 9343 using both the laptop screen and the external monitor (external monitor is left and laptop screen right), when using all of the following kernels: 4.4.0-2.16-generic 4.4.0-4.19-generic 4.4.0-6.21-generic 4.4.0-7.22-generic the external monitor will sometimes blink off for about a second or two, then back on.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1547619] Re: Intermittent screen blinking with 4k external mini display port with 4.4 kernels
I was unable to bisect between 4.3.0-7.18 and 4.4.0-1.15-generic because the commits are not linear. Due to this, we should test and confirm 4.4.0-0.10 does not have the bug. It shouldn't. Once we confirm that, I can start a bisect between 4.4.0-0.10 and 4.4.0-1.15-generic. I built a 4.4.0-0.10 kernel which can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1547619/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547619 Title: Intermittent screen blinking with 4k external mini display port with 4.4 kernels Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Bug description: When using an external 4K monitor plugged into the mini display port on my Dell XPS 13 9343 using both the laptop screen and the external monitor (external monitor is left and laptop screen right), when using all of the following kernels: 4.4.0-2.16-generic 4.4.0-4.19-generic 4.4.0-6.21-generic 4.4.0-7.22-generic the external monitor will sometimes blink off for about a second or two, then back on.
