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.
