Research direction

This is a user support report, not a code change: the reporter describes flickering, lagging and a second-display bug on the desktop, and attaches logs under the send-logs ID NM-TW1ANZ4Y / NM-2MS3JZYB. The only concrete detail is the workaround flags nvfbheads=2 -nvrmnoflip, which the reporter says they added themselves. Done would mean a reproduction or a diagnosis that a maintainer can act on, which the issue text alone does not provide, so it needs a maintainer to triage the logs first.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
