** Description changed: When I upgrade my laptop (ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. ZenBook UX450FDX_UX480FD/UX450FDX, BIOS UX450FDX.307 07/05/2019) to the latest BIOS (UX450FDX.313), the laptop keeps getting events to change the display mode (FN+F8), when having an external monitor connected this makes the laptop unusable, as the gnome mode selector keeps popping up. When not using an external monitor it seriously hinders/slows down keyboard input. When I revert back to the previous BIOS (UX450FDX.307) everything is fine again. What's odd is that when I use the FN+F8 button now I don't get this gnome mode selector, it just changes the mode right away. I'm guessing this is a bug in the kernel asus-wmi driver. I checked the history of the kernel for the file "drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c", but I don't see anything that could have fixed this in 5.3+ kernels. I'm willing to upgrade bios/kernel and/or test experimental drivers in order to fix this.
