ubuntu update intel graphics driver 17.04

installing latest Intel driver for Linux.

INITIAL POST (an overview details below): The screen flickering appeared after using the computer half an hour, first random shutdown after 2 hours. Also installing the latest version of Intel driver did not help. In the INITIAL POST it is described what I tried to do to fix the problems before, but nothing worked out so far (it just went worse).

Note that this time I did not install any additional driver or manipulated the software or tried to following instructions for other posts.

Shell (especially when connected via ssh to a server) is frozen in.

When using other programs less, but screen flickering often experienced when typing.

Now random shutdowns when especially using shell every couple of minutes.

Same as reported before (see below) but issues went worse: I wanted to include links to their posts but I am lacking reputation in order to do that, sorry for that. There are many people who having the similar problems. Weird screen flickering issue in ubuntu 17.04 GNOME –> I tried everything which is mentioned here The following posts contain similar behavior as I am experiencing, often a Lenovo or a Dell computer are involved:įlickering screen with Intel graphics on Ubuntu 17.04 –> for me the same if I am using and external screen or the laptop Please note that the NEW POST mostly refer to the INITIAL POST and that there has be four EDITS on the INITIAL POST.ĮDIT 1: providing a part of the system and temperatur sensor logsĮDIT 2: name confusion between Gnome and UnityĮDIT 3: Installation of Centos 7 which still shows screen flickering but no shutdowns.ĮDIT 4: Installation of Centos 6 after an uncarefully made update under Centos 7 triggered random shutdowns again.

Therefore I am asking this question again and because other people also report similar behaviour I wanted to discuss this issue in details.įirst you can find the NEW POST and below the INITIAL POST.

However, I have the same (and worse) issues for the LTS 16.04 and for the new Ubuntu 17.04 or 17.10. I ask the same question a couple of weeks ago but the question was closed because it was related to Ubuntu 17.10 which is under development.
