Well, in answer to my own post: I edited the Monitor section of the XF86Config for this monitor, to more acurately reflect the H/V scan rates per the spec for the monitor. and presto... no more flicker.
It must of been that the older version of X was less sensitive to these configurations? Thanks, I hope this helps someone else. Lincoln On Sun, 2003-06-15 at 18:36, Lincoln A.
