Hey Daniel

thanks for your help.

I tried to correlate before.. what happens all the time (why I opened
this bug) is the "system is too slow" message. That one correlates. I
see it every time it happens.

screen last flickered at 11:17:05 - then went out (blank screen) for
like 10 seconds

when it came back this was in log:

I have another window capturing for the keyword "evdi" - no hits there. :(

Title:
  [DisplayLink] screen flicker on gnome with t450s with ultra dock

Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  picture on monitor connected to DisplayPort flickers occasionally. between 1 
and 20 times per hour.
  searched for similar bugs or problems, related to docking station. Does not 
happen when using laptop standalone / connect screen manually. 

  DisplayLink Driver is installed/compiled from official website.

  whenever the flickering happens, this appears in log:

  "libinput error: client bug: timer event20 debounce short: scheduled
  expiry is in the past (-10ms), your system is too slow"

  anything I can contribute? fix? 
  I tried to get daily builds of intel-driver but that broke wayland/gdm so I 
rolled back.

  only link I could find that seems relevant is
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1572667 - which
  expired.

  thanks

  
  Andreas
