Details

Description:

Black screen and flickering happens frequently under Plasma 5.10 / Xorg. This appears to be kwin_x11 or the Plasma shell triggering a kernel bug.

dmesg error:

[drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun

Hardware:

Thinkpad P50, i7-6700HQ

This appears to be an upstream kernel bug rather than due to any Arch patching, since the exact same problem is noticed here:
