Hi there

Running latest Manjaro installed a couple of weeks ago here, I got sort of the same issue. Whenever making a screenshot with flameshot, or have a video full screen via Kodi, sometimes I got part of the screen blank, as shown in the attached photo.

 ![IMG_20231120_160606](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex001/uploads/framework3/original/3X/0/4/04127bc032304e2f142240f06addefa4b4168d4c.jpeg)

If I “esc” sometimes it stop, sometimes it stays and I’ve to reboot.

dmesg says

```auto

```

I did upgraded the BIOS to 3.03

```auto
sudo dmidecode | grep -A3 'Vendor:\|Product:' && sudo lshw -C cpu | grep -A3 'product:\|vendor:'  INT ✘ 
	Vendor: INSYDE Corp.
	Version: 03.03
	Release Date: 10/17/2023
	Address: 0xE0000

uname -a
Linux mylaptopname 6.5.11-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Nov 9 02:34:53 UTC 2023 x86_64 GNU/Linux

```

So, what else can I do to troubleshoot further / fix it ?
