Warren, with 0.99beta25 the problem still exists. After loading a molecule there's no flickering but if I do a ray trace then the flickering starts when I rotate. Shifting the window stops the flickering. By running show cartoon after loading I can also get the flickering. Again, moving the

I've just tested a G5 imac with a GeForce FX5200 with 64MB RAM and macpymol 99beta21/25 and it works fine with 10.4.3. It seems the problem is limited to ATI graphics cards with less than 256 RAM. nVidea cards are not affected. Will try an ATI card with 128MB RAM if I can find one here.
