Thanks for the bug report. Please edit /etc/default/grub and change:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.enable_psr=0"
and then run:
sudo update-grub
and reboot.
Does that fix the problem?

Title:
Screen flickering on Ubuntu 20.04 - HP Spectre X360 with Intel Skylake
GT2 [HD Graphics 520]
Status in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I am using Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS on my HP Spectre X360 with Intel Skylake
GT2 [HD Graphics 520] and I am having flickering graphics.
The problem sometimes happens showing grey flickering boxes 5-6 times
in a minute, and sometimes it does not happen for 2-3 minutes.
Overall, it annoys me quite a lot.
I have tried decreasing the refresh rate from 60Hz to lower options,
but that didn't work. Updating the drivers or purging Intel graphics
didn't work either. I also tried a couple of stuff I saw online
regarding /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/.
I do not have this issue on Windows, therefore it must be Ubuntu-
related.
When I set nomodeset on GRUB and update it, flickering disappears, but
at the cost of my brightness adjuster and Night Light.
As for package I have:
apt-cache policy pkgname
N: Unable to locate package pkgname
dpkg -l |grep xserver-xorg-core
