Posted. I rebooted into the stock 4.5.1 kernel (direct from the Arch repository) with drm.debug=0x1e added to the kernel command line, logged in, suspended, resumed, and dumped the log with journalctl. I took a quick check through and didn't see any messages that indicated any sort of failure after the suspend operation. However there are a lot of messages in there, so I could have missed something. What I do know is that after the resume from suspend, I get something on the order of a 2 Hz flicker on the display that looks like the eDP link is flapping - i.e. there is tearing that affects the bottom portion of the display more than the top due to the link going down in the middle of a frame, portions of the display are briefly distorted or colored strangely, etc. None of this happens on 4.1.21, which is where I will stay until this gets a proper fix in the mainline. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522922 Title: Screen flickering in Intel i915 driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nouveau/+bug/1522922/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
