It is somewhat less frequent than this, and perhaps shorter, just a single 
flicker once in a while.

I am playing with different graphics drivers at the moment, I was using the 
nvidia drivers but I am now trying the rpm modules. So far my latest try 
seems better, but time will tell.

thanks for suggestions.
