Pretty much anytime you use 60 hertz your going to have flicker. Turn off the
flouresent lights in your room, and the flicker will go away :)
Make the refresh rate anything but 60 hertz, and the flicker should go away.
THe tradeoff is the actual speed of the display will be slower. Try xvidtune,
or Xconfigurator, and hopefully you can fine-tune it.
