Are you sure about that? Dell's website says the laptop comes with Nvidia graphics. If that's the case, GPU drivers should be updated to version 555 to resolve flickering.
Yep...
~~Huh, TIL to look up the specs of your laptop when troubleshooting.~~
Edit: apparently there's no Nvidia card inside her laptop, despite the fact that Dell says it should.
Check specs on the laptop itself using inxi. Some laptops come in different configurations so looking up specs may be confusing or misleading.
Turns out it really is, huh.
~~So it does! First time seeing a laptop with nvidia graphics, neat.~~
Edit: is the Dell website wrong? Her laptop doesn't seem to have anything Nvidia inside it.
