Bug Description

Hello, I want to report that i have some issue with my screen. I tried a lot of thinks to repair it but it does not want go. I mean, I have problem with flickering on the screen. Sometimes it's just a part of the screen flickering, at other times it is flickering of the entire screen so I cannot do normal work, and at other times there is no flickering. I reinstalled Ubuntu 3 or 4 times but still have the same problem. Of course, I did not have this problem for about two months of using Ubuntu but this problem showed up suddenly, afer one day.
