After two days use of Endeavour without issue (I’m new to this OS) my external screen a Philips 273V5 has developed a screen flicker. I did a little basic checking. Its set to 60Hz and works with my other laptop running Linux Mint Debian Edition flawlessly. My Endeavour laptop works well with the laptops screen but the minute you connect it to the Philips things now go pear shaped. Any help would be much appreciated.
Here’ some output:
