Operating System: Ubuntu LTS

Hi,

on my laptop (HP EliteBook X360 1040 G8) running with KDE neon, I have a problem of screen flickering when connected to some WIFI networks. Since the purchase of this laptop and the installation of various Linux OS, I experienced screen problems (freeze, flickering) which were attributed to I915 driver problems. This issue only occurs on the laptop screen, never on an external screen. After release of updated kernels and drivers, the situation is far better. However, when the laptop is connected to some networks at home or at work, flickering are huge, the laptop being unusable. It also occurs when the laptop is connected with a shared connection with my phone. This problem is present since the purchase of the laptop. 

My question: Is this issue possibly due to hardware problem because I have a warranty

Thanks for your responses
