Hi everybody
On my system MSI B75A-G43 (MS-7758) , when running the latest kernel the screen shake, but only when X is running - Before X is installed or running, the screen is visibly fine.

Re: Shake in desktop plasma 5

If xf86-video-intel is installed remove it.

Re: Shake in desktop plasma 5

In kernel 5 onwards
should be: option i915 modeset

/etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf

option i915 modeset = 1

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

Section "Device"
   Identifier  "Intel Graphics"
   Option      "AccelMethod"  "sna" # FPS lower or normal
   #Option      "AccelMethod"  "uxa" # FPS higher or maybe for game
   Option      "TearFree"     "true"
EndSection

and
The problem was solved. smile

Re: Shake in desktop plasma 5

The Device section doesn't match a driver and will only apply to xf86-video-intel - which you claim to be removed - anyway and i915.modeset is enabled by default and w/o you'd either run on the unaccelerated vesa driver or get no GUI at all.

=> The solution is most likely coincidental and not related to anything in post #4
