Thanks Daniel,
1) I uninstalled xserver-xorg-video-intel. No change.
2) I noticed that. 18.04 and Debian works fine on same machine.
Using a recent installation of 20.04 desktop with updates but little to
no changes from stock:
5.4.0-42-generic WORKS FINE on /dev/sda1:
5.8.0-38-generic on /dev/sda1 boots to desktop, cursor OK, but 1st or
2nd user action immediately renders system unusable. Freezes, various
screen flashing, reboots or reverts to user login.
Verified the above multiple times.
What else can I do to help?
Thanks!
... Duane Shults

Title:
[i915] Last few kernel updates, video crashes, system freezes
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
1) Chromebox 2955U trying to run Ubuntu 20.04 with updates. Has been running
Ubuntu for many years.
2) Video seems to crash when ANY program, menu item or terminal is started
after reboot. Flashing screen fields, boxes, menus. Cursor freezes or stutters.
3) 18.02 ran and runs fine in other partitions.
4) Latest Debian runs fine in other partiton.
5) Ubuntu 20.04 runs fine when running directly from USB flashdrive. This is
really wierd.
6) Occurs immediately after a fresh installation of 20.04 in any partition.
Verified sha256sums.
7) Can make system usable with nomodeset in grub linux line but runs very
slow.
8) Tried "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel". ... Already running
latest.
9) Memtest86 ran 2 full iterations, no errors.
10) Seems like I verified an older kernel worked fine, but an "autoremove"
removed it/them.
11) I've been fighting this for a few months now.
Thank you for any support you can give...
