Scintilating screen after upgrade to Kernel 5.10.49-1 LTS

[Adenauer]

Hello.

After upgrade to Kernel 5.10.49-1 LTS, the screen (login and desktop) begin scintilating and the problem was only solved after the downgrade to the predecessor Kernel 5.4.131-1 LTS.

My computer is a celeron n4000, with only a shared gpu, that always worked well.

Even if the problem doesn’t have a solution, I would like to contribute with the bug information for possible and desirable correction. If someone knows and recommends a more appropriate communication channel, I accept suggestions.

[HowTo] become a Manjaro power user when you're a wizard at Windows but a N00b at Manjaro / Linux

Difficulty: ☆☆☆☆☆ Remember when you installed your very first Windows, added bells and whistles and then couldn’t see the trees for the wood any more and had to re-install? Well, you’re in the same situation now: You’re a N00b again! Embrace it! I know right now you’re thinking:

Why is this so much more difficult than Windows?

Why can't I make Windows jump through fiery hoops like I do with Linux???

Secret #3: Why do I need to know all this?

That’s easy! The Manjaro Team are a bunch of Nerds (with a capital ‘N’) that expect you to be at least a geek or better: a Geek (with a capital ‘G’) and to file Manjaro bugs with the Manjaro Team, but to file bugs that are unrelated to Manjaro with the correct team upstream!

So just DuckDuckGo (DDG) file bug and then append the name of the program to your search and you’ll find out!
E.G. If I want to file a bug with the VLC player team, I just DDG file bug VLC and look: the first hit on DDG is what I need!
