Unfortunately not working for me.
It gives me some more errors:

[drm:ivybridge_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared fifo
underrun on pipe A
[drm:ivb_err_int_handler] *ERROR* Pipe A FIFO underrun
[drm:ivybridge_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared fifo
underrun on pipe B
[drm:ivb_err_int_handler] *ERROR* Pipe B FIFO underrun
[drm:cpt_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared pch fifo
underrun on pch transcoder A
[drm:cpt_serr_int_handler] *ERROR* PCH transcoder A FIFO underrun
[drm:cpt_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared pch fifo
underrun on pch transcoder B
[drm:cpt_serr_int_handler] *ERROR* PCH transcoder B FIFO underrun
