Just to be clear, mine is not a thing commercially known as NUC, it's just a bare Asrock D1800B-ITX motherboard (with embedded passive cooled Celeron J1800) in a custom mini-ITX case. > I ask that question because I also own a NUC (the pentium one, with > the same graphics) and I saw the very same artifacts you’re talking > about with Fedora 23 and 24.

I have just tried a Fedora 24 Live USB stick, with all packages as they were when Fedora 24 was released (kernel 4.5.5, intel driver 2.99.917) and everything worked fine out-of-the-box: youtube in Firefox, gnomeshell, (though not my test video files, because there is no RPMFusion). I saw no artifact at all. However I have no idea whether I was running with SNA or UXA, it was just working directly out-of-the-box (and I haven't found /var/log/Xorg.0.log). > I’m mentionning this here because as far as I know, the FreeBSD intel > driver is ported from Linux, and I’m afraid that those issues were > also ported with it. That's a very good point, one can't expect a FreeBSD driver port to fix native bugs. Unfortunately, at least in my case, it seems the issue stems from the port rather than the original driver. Thanks for the comment, Natasha
