You have been subscribed to a public bug: Since I switched to a new screen (ASUS VG249Q1R) with higher refesh rate and AMD FreeSync I notice massive flickering and tearing after waking up from standby - but only when FreeSync is activated. The flickering starts to occur on the login interface but continues after logging in and also during full-screen applications like games.
The flickering is resolved in the short run by switching the refresh rate to 60hz (via KDE display settings) and back to the favored higher refresh rate. Alternatively I can turn FreeSync off. When I turn it back on, the flickering recurs after waking up from standby again. As this problem occured to other people after upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 I assume it is not a hardware problem. The bug seems identical to these reports: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1874588 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- amdgpu/+bug/1885363 My system has the following specifications: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: XFX Radeon RX 5600 XT Thicc II Pro OS: Kubuntu 20.04.1 LTS Kernel: 5.4.0-58-generic DE: KDE Plasma 5.18.5 Screen: ASUS VG249Q1R, FHD, 165Hz, FreeSync, … I hope for a solution inside Ubuntu 20.04.
