Title:
skylake Modesetting Driver on X failure
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
with the change away from the intel driver to modeset I get a lot of
tearing.
This video shows the problem.

And the video capture is done in 240fps so its possible to see what is
happening more clearly.
The test video itself is just a short test video with alternating
red/green pictures in 60Hz.
What you should see is a somewhat flickering screen but the color
should be a consistent orange hue.
there should be no pulsing of colors that is more green then back to
more red and so on then something is wrong.
I have attached the video. if you are uncertain how it should look try to
play it directly on a TV. that is with the TV own player not with a computer as
that has a lot higher probability of not having any issues with vsync and frame
updates.
