Title:
  Display artificats when using external display with Ubuntu 16.04 on
  Lenovo X1 Carbon (Broadwell)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After upgrading this laptop from 14.04 (LTS-Wily X & Kernel stack) to
  16.04, I am no longer able to usefully use external displays.  There
  are artifacts on both displays that get worse with mouse movement.
  Upgrading to a 4.7rc3 mainline kernel from the Ubuntu kernel PPA fixed
  the problem.

  (I'm using the mini-DP port on the laptop and have tried several
  different converters and monitors.)
