(Note: I'm using Fedora, not Ubuntu - but figured, this info will still be useful to anyone affected by the bug.)
I've upgraded from Fedora 27 to 28, and the bug went away. My best guess is that updating Gnome from 3.26 to 3.28 is what fixed it. (The kernel versions don't seem to have any effect.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727320 Title: Screen turn on/off 3 times and DP-1-3 connected but nothing is connected [latitude e7470] Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Gnome-shell crash and restart after the login and the screen flicker 1 time (3 with wayland) in Ubuntu 17.10 with my DELL latitude e7470 laptop. If I go in display settings I notice a second monitor Synaptics Inc 24'' which doesn't exist in reality. In Wayland after the screen stop flickering I don't have any other problem and that monitor is not present there. xrandr | grep -i ' connected' eDP-1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 309mm x 174mm DP-1-3 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) <-- I don't have anything connected to this port With Fedora 26 I don't have this problem but I'm not yet able to find what package is the culprit. I believe this problem is related to Displayport 1.2, I don't have any dock nor I need to connect more than 1 monitor and would be satisfied just having one interface.
