Bug Description

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS have a low video quality, bad color management and the screen keeps tearing. I guess maybe those are part of the same problem. I thinks that there's maybe an issue with xorg on Intel graphics card or probably an issue with the Mesa driver. I don't really know. The screen keeps tearing even after I did this:

sudo mkdir /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

Section "Device"
   Identifier "Intel Graphics"
   Driver "intel"
   Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection

Those are the informations I collected:

The xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package was manually uninstalled and the problem was happening even with this package installed.

Those are all different issues. Please:

1. Log a separate bug about each issue and reword this bug to be about only one issue.

2. Don't install 'Oibaf' if you wish to log bugs, because it is not supported and frequently causes new bugs that we can't fix.
