I have laptop with 18.04 installed, this problem also occurred when I used 16.04 before.

My screen seems to blink when I start typing, it blinked instantly that I could not capture the moment of it, anyhow the blinking also happens randomly, there is no pattern at all.

I have tried the suggestion from various source, this includes:

  1. Updating the kernel, I am using kernel 4.19 now, before this I was using kernel 4.5 or 4.6 but does not work also.
  2. Updating graphics driver, running command from https://askubuntu.com/a/215967. Doesn't seem to work, the flickering still happens.

How do I stop this from happening, it is not really distracting because it's only fraction of second, but if I can stop it I rather do so.

I don't have dedicated video graphics card, using Intel graphics at the moment. I think it's Intel HD 3000.

sudo lshw -C video | grep product result.

sudo lshw -C video | grep product
product: 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller

uname -r result.

$ uname -r
4.19.20-041920-generic

If you want further command, I'd love to include them.
