The screen flickers while the Zorin logo appears

That what I gathered from the link I posted above.
I suppose the only way to know is testing those older kernels one by one.

The other thing he can try is this one

sudo apt purge xserver-xorg-video-intel

I already tried that once, I had to reinstall the system because the graphics performance got even worse

But he only has Intel integrated GPU.
Will it not remove all drivers?

Then I the kernel downgrade is the only option I can think of.

Ok, which version do you recommend?

Unless @Aravisian has a better idea...I'm racking my brain (and there isn't much to do that with)

I think the last stable version was 5.4, not 5.8.
But we'd better wait for @Aravisian.
He is an expert.

Did you try to edit and add this ?

gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "Intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection

Yes, the result is that the desktop is full of graphical errors

I am out of ideas now :thinking:

While we are waiting for @Aravisian
can you please add your hardware info to your profile? Thank you.

It didn't work, I installed 5.4 from Ubuntu Kernel and it still keeps happening

I am also using these kernel parameters

"pci = noaer fsck.mode = skip i915.preliminary_hw_support = 1 quiet splash"

and they didn't help either

We will wait for @Aravisian and see what he might tell us.

Remove these and make it just "quiet splash"
What is your Mesa version?

sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "Intel"
Option "DRI" "3"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection

ctrl+x to exit, the y key to say yes to save, then enter key to save as current configuraion.
You might have luck with the 5.8 kernel. We can try that if the above does not work.
The next thing to try is installing the Intel Drivers for your machine directly from the website.

That was a lot of @'s in one thread. :expressionless:

OpenGL version string: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 21.2.2

How can I do that?

Okay, I will try it

Thanks for replying @Aravisain

How can I install the drivers from the Intel website?

I am actually not sure... Because I know users used to be able to... I just went to the site:

And they only list for Windows.
