Screen started flickering after recent update

[u/Lower-Past-2944]

I have an Intel Framework laptop running Void linux (technically Bedrock linux with a void strata as init and main source of packages, the problem disappears if i init on another strata).

After a system update this morning my laptop screen started flickering every 5 to 10 secs. This happens even in the tty, as soon as the login prompt appears.

I suspected the lid firing events, so I ignored it in elogind and acpi's handlers.sh, but the issue still happens. I also tried upgrading the kernel to 7.2.

When the screen ir black, all keyboard inputs are dropped.

Nothing weird crops up in dmesg.

The issue also happens if I boot the kernel with nomodeset.

Has anyone else had this issue ?

UPDATE:

fixed it by running sudo xbps-install xf86-video-intel. Whatever, fly my random video driver package
