I just loaded Ubuntu 14.04LTS 64-bit on a Dell D630 with an integrated Nvidia Quadro NVS 135m display adapter, removed nouveau completely and installed 340.32 from the Nvidia site (not the edgers PPA), andthe flicker was present. A common suggestion is to disable dithering in nvidia-settings, which did not help. The workaround posted by Alexander Pavel above resolved this. I previously was running an Ubuntu 14.04LTS 64-bit build using the latest properietary driver that is native to Ubuntu 14.4 (331.something) and did not have this issue.
