Package: i915
Version: firmware-misc-nonfree
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Since the update to kernel 4.16 I can't prevent my Lenovo Yoga 910 from having
severe screen flicker when idle.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Booting with option i.915.enable_rc6=0 prevented the flicker from happening.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Since kernel 4.16 this does not work anymore. My research shows that the option
in question is not included in the firmware anymore.
