On a fresh boot all works well, but after an indeterminate amount of
time the screen starts tearing badly, most noticeably as a permanent
vertical tear. Once this tearing starts, it affects everything (desktop,
etc) but is mostly visible in videos. The only way to get rid of the
tear is to reboot.
I do not know where this tearing is occurring, compositor? graphics
driver?
Hardware, Intel NUC5i5RYK (integrated graphics), LG 31MU97 DCI 4K
monitor (4096x2160). Using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable between the
NUC and monitor.
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U
Integrated Graphics (rev 09)
Software, Kubuntu 15.04 I also see the same problem in 15.10, but the computer
I took the video of has 15.04 installed.
The screen resolution is set to 4096x2160.
In my syslog, I also see tons of these error messages (I dont know if they are
related to the tearing). The error message repeats multiple times, and then
stops.
[ 668.879288] [drm:gen8_irq_handler [i915_bpo]] *ERROR* The master
control interrupt lied (SDE)!
I am hoping I can attach a video to this file which shows the tearing
