[Bug 1488719] Re: dmesg shows "[drm:gen8_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* The master control interrupt lied (SDE)!"

 

I have been affected by this bug for a while as well.  This is my setup:

Dell E5450 with Ubuntu 14.04.04 LTS with kernel: 4.2.0-34-generic

The laptop is connected to a Dell E-Port Plus Advanced Port Replicator.

The port replicator is connected via two seperate DP -> mDP cables to
two monitors of model Dell  27" QHD U2715H.

I get the same annoying error in dmesg but that is the least of my
problems. I also get complete crashes where changing TTY is impossible.
The entire laptop will also at times reboot, even when not being used. I
also get the same problem others have reported where waking up the
laptop causes the second screen to go back into power-save mode. I used
to have screen flickering in Windows 10 Professional. But i have not
seen this behavior in Ubuntu.

I also get this suspicious error in /var/log/syslog
