Title: Dell XPS 13 (7390) Display Flickering - 19.10 Status in OEM Priority Project: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Disco: Won't Fix Status in linux source package in Eoan: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Focal: Fix Released Bug description: Hi there, I recently purchased a Dell XPS 13 7390 (Developer Edition). I decided to replace 18.4 LTS with 19.10 and so far it has been pretty smooth. However, there is one issue which occurs frequently whereby the display flickers and becomes unusable. The best way to describe the appearance is that the image becomes heavily distorted. Sometimes it only happens for a split second, other times it is permanently distorted. When this happens, simply closing the laptop lip and re-opening seems to put the display back into it's correct state. I didn't experience this issue on 18.04 LTS which is why I believe it's a Software Bug within 19.10.
