01. often, simply orienting the monitor in another direction also works. faraday's hand? 02. a condenser or a coil inside the monitor might be growing weak. 03. transferring monitors from one location to another tends to create this. some monitors have magnets inside to align the guns, and these can easily get dislodged or misaligned. so it is never a good idea to move monitors around. 04. try a degauss if it's available, though this tends to work better with color-casts. nevertheless, would help in some cases with flicker problem. do not use the monitor if it flickers so noticeably. different people have different physiological responses to refresh rates. you may damage your eyes. one obvious test: borrow another monitor, connect it in the same place with the same orientation, and see if it flickers. then you can isolate the problem, whether it is EMF or just your particular device. try step 01) first. :-) niyam _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
