gnome-rr scale fix leads to screen flickering on external monitor #151

Closed vdcow closed 4 years ago

vdcow commented 4 years ago

Upgrade to cinnamon-desktop 4.6.2 with fix for gnome-rr scale leads to Cinnamon screen flickering (it is almost unusable) when external monitor is attached.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Attach external monitor to laptop
  2. Login into Cinnamon

After login screen starts flickering. It is interesting that this issue doesn't happen when I login into Cinnamon first and then attach external monitor.

This should be fixed (see linked issue)
