I seem to remember than DSL is a pain on CRT monitors. You cant increase the refresh to 85Hz or more to stop the flicker. It did get reported to the DSL maintainers but they dont use CRT so said they werent interested in changing it. If it isnt DSL its probably PuppyLinux instead that has this CRT problem.
