Scrambled pixels in blocks with lenovo dock gen 2 thunderbolt 3 DP 1.4

[Fodor Zoltan]

I am experiencing issues with rendering on 1440p@165hz in Ubuntu 20.04 with Lenovo Dock Gen 2 thunderbolt 3 40AN through DP 1.4. Depending on what is rendered and mouse position the screen can get blocks of scrambled purple pixels. These blocks are always horizontally half of the screen either on the right or the left and they are variable in height. Also the display sometimes flickers / disconnects. This configuration works correctly on Windows 10.

Strange part is that this mostly happens during browsing websites, especially when scrolling or typing / moving mouse in certain positions. Using Intelij IDE it doesn't happen. Watching youtube fullscreen even 8K at 60fps it works normally.

The issue happens on 60hz as well.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

This issue also happens to me running Ubuntu 20.04.2.0 with the NVidia driver 460 on a Quadro 5000 / Lenovo P17.

Identical issue, and it is triggered when I run for example "glxgears"
