Strangely there is some output detection going on after the Xserver has been
fully started, DAC detection could certainly be the reason for flickering on a
VGA output.
I'm not sure what is causing the monitor detection to happen. Neither the
Xserver nor the driver should do this.
Could you do an X -logverbose 7 :1
in a console, please check if you can still observe any flickering, then kill
the server with crtl-alt-bs (twice!) and check if there are still mutiple such
monitor probes at the end of the log file.
This flickering could also come from linebuffer starvation during drawing
operations. There are too may entities accessing local memory on the card.
Robby: just for testing: could you add the option:
Option "NoAccel"
to the device section of the config file and try again?
