Bug Description
1. leave computer until gnome-shell blanks the screen (monitor goes to sleep)
2. clear GDM screen by swiping up.
There is a video flicker now when I interact with computer.
Usually small, but can cover many different UI elements.
This does not happen if I use the X backend instead of wayland.
