Have a look at this short movie:

If you put up a black background, you can see thin light coloured 
horizontal lines flickering (ie a fraction of a second).  Here, I've put 
up a gnome-terminal and a web page with black backgrounds ... it is 
clearly a global issue, and not related to individual apps.

Most of the time, I use light background with dark text, so I don't 
notice it ... but it's clearly there and doesn't go away.  With a light 
background, I sometimes see dark lines, but it seems to me to be less 
noticeable than the other way around.

I tried toggling 16 and 24 bit colour, tuning on/off 3e acceleration 
(via redhat-config-xfree).  Same problem.

It seems to me that it's a global refresh/sync problem ... but I'm not 
the expert.

Any ideas?
