I agree with djcater and mactyr that this does not seem to be a
duplicate.  My screen flashes every several minutes.

  Dell XPS 13 9380 - Screen flashes

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I have a new 2019 Dell XPS 13 (9380). I ordered the official Ubuntu
  edition from Dell which came with 18.04, but I've since wiped it and
  installed 19.04 from a fresh ISO download. This is the non-touch non-
  4K version (13-inch 1080p).

  Every so often (maybe a couple of times per minute), the screen
  flashes brighter, as if the brightness has been turned up momentarily
  and then back down again.

  I previously had an issue with the brightness / colours changing
  slightly when I opened menus or if the screen content changed
  slightly, but I fixed that by disabling Dynamic Brightness in the
  BIOS. It is definitely a better experience with that turned off.

  However the screen flashing still persists.

  I booted a live image of Fedora 30 now that it has been released, and
  so far I have not seen the screen flashing, so I do not think the
  hardware is faulty.

  I ran apport-bug, so hopefully the collected information has been
  attached.

  Thank you.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1826125 ***

I should probably note that I am also using the non-touch non-4K version
(13-inch 1080p) screen with a clean install of 19.04.  The "flash" does
not appear if the Ubuntu image provided by Dell (18.04) is installed and
then upgraded to 19.04.  However it does occurs when 19.04 is clean
installed via the Ubuntu ISO downloaded from canonical.  The flash is
much more obvious/annoying when the display is in "Night Light" mode.

2019-08-30 Thread brandon_s
I followed these steps and the screen still flickers.

1) Downloaded the kernel linked to here into a new directory:
https://bugzilla.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110511#c16

2) sudo dpkg -i *deb

3) sudo reboot

Have I correctly installed the new kernel?
