<pre>I submitted this Fedora bug a while back:
<a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1352325">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1352325</a>
The latest discoveries I have made tend to indicate it is a problem with the
intel video drivers when running under a 4.6 kernel. The strange behavior
disappeared when I plugged in an nvidia card and stopped using the onboard
intel video on my motherboard.
The most obvious problem happens with the cursor in a Windows 10 virtual
machine using QXL/Spice for the display. A video attached to the fedora
bugzilla above shows the horrible flickering plus the mouse images it leaves
behind when I move the mouse.
I also have an ancient Motif app displaying some xpm icons which start randomly
flickering on and off (they are not animated icons :-). There is an attached
video for that as well.
On the 4.5 kernel, none of these problems happen. On the 4.6 kernel they happen
all the time.</pre>
