Unfortunately the problem still persisted across all kernel updates and
also with latest kernel installed today: kernel-5.2.15-200.fc30.x86_64
Currently I'm forced to use the latest 5.1 kernel that I downloaded and
used before updating to 5.2: kernel-5.1.20-300.fc30.x86_64
Verified also on 2 other external monitors with same effect. All 3 were
Dell Monitors, even if quite different models, I don't know if this can
make any difference
No feedback on bugzilla page yet and no other posters.. if anyone also has
this kind of problem is invited to post there so to get more attention
Of course this is with i915 kernel module and possibly other ones, like
nouveau and what used for Amd gpu, are working ok with external monitors
and 5.2 kernels

Thanks,

Gianluca
