[Intel-gfx] Screen Flickering on DELL XPS-13-7390

Hello

I installed opensuse Tumbleweed linux on a brand new Dell XPS-13-7390. Already during the installation, the screen started to flicker. Then I installed opensuse 15.1 on the same laptop and it worked without screen flickering. But after I run the online update it started to flicker again. I suspect that there are some changes in the newer kernel versions. Does anybody know why it does work with kernel 4.12.14-lp151.27-default and it doesn't work with a newer kernel. I opened a thread in the opensuse forum:

There you can see the outputs of inxi. Somebody recommended to ask here for advice. Is there anything I can do to get rid of this screen flickering?

Thank you very much for your help
