Fedora Core 3 with a Gnome desktop (why haven't I switched yet is a long story) and the RPM I got is from the site below (direct link included), using apt for RPM. http://dag.wieers.com/ http://apt.sw.be/fedora/3/en/i386/RPMS.dag/lyx-1.3.5-1.1.fc3.rf.i386.rpm
None of my other applications flicker like this. Any chance you can test that binaries in that RPM, to confirm whether or not it is those specific binaries? If I get time, I will try to make my own LyX binaries, but if it still flickers, then either I am making it incorrectly or there is something wrong with another Fedora component (it wouldn't be the first time, trust me). Are you sure that you get no flickering whatsoever? I tried turning off instant preview, but it made no difference. To reproduce, simply make a large multipage document, run your desktop in a high resolution of at least 1280x960, maximize the LyX window, and use the scroll bar to scroll. Flickering is harder to notice with a very small Window. Also, I swear LyX flickers in Debian testing too. Of course, I haven't used Debian testing since last summer, so my memory of it isn't all that good. LyX is still perfectly functional and very useful in spite of the flickering, but it just looks really bad.
