guillaume le louet, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better. As per http://us.msi.com/support/nb/GT72-Dominator-Pro-GTX-
980M.html#down-bios an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS
is available (310). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status New.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  vibrations on MSI gt72 2qe scren

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  bought it last week, GPU is NVidia Ge Force 980M.
  With nouveau installed I only use the small intel chipset ; I installed nvidia 352 from their site, and it works good for the external screen I have but now the integrated screen has those problems.

  The description is, like the front of the screen was vibrating. I think a better term could be used, see attached screenshot.
  As you can notice, lines are shifted to left/right on several positions of the screen.

  It makes the use of the screen very unpleasant. So I usually switch it
  off.
