Display problems with Lubuntu 22.04 and Intel UHD Graphics 600

as flag

I have two touchscreen tablet computers where I have installed Lubuntu 22.04. There are problems with the displays when Linux starts:

  1. First computer has black screen once desktop has been loaded. I can login using SSH and TeamViewer on the computer. After a while, the screen starts filling with vertical colors.

  2. On the other computer, the screen has flickering / glitches almost all the time.

The native resolution for both tablet computers is 2160x1440 pixels. But if I start the machines using e.g. 1024x768 resolution and then change to 2160x1440 resolution, then there aren't any problems with the displays.

Or if I turn off the screen first using xrandr --output eDP-1 --off and then back on using xrandr --output eDP-1 --mode 2160x1440 then I get it working.

Also if using "nomodeset" kernel parameter, then there are no problems with the displays, except that xrandr doesn't work and I can't adjust backlight after that.

Output from one computer using lspci -vnn:

When checking EDID using get-edid I get the following:

EndSection

I have tried almost anything and can't understand where the problem is.

Nomodeset tells the OS not to use the video driver. That is causing issues of its own. If nomodeset makes the issues go away on startup it is a driver issue.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
