    program window flickering

    Hey people,

    I've been having some graphics related issues in ubuntu 13.04.
    At seemingly random times, an application-window (any application) will just give a short flicker, and then resume to normal.
    I have no idea what causes this.

    I've already tried all drivers available (there were 3), as well as configuring grub,
    by modifying

    Code:
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=SVIDEO-1:d"
    Some stats about the laptop I'm using:

    - HP pavilion g7
    - less than 2 months old
    - previously had Windows 8 on it

    Kind regards,
    Joris

    No help to you but I have noticed a similar issue. I get the flicker when I click on a, usually LibreOffice, window frame to move it. It isn't very disabling just a little annoying and I get it so little that I opted to ignore it.

    I'm a bit of a movie-fanatic. So, you can imagine me grumbling (and cursing) whenever I'm relaxing, watching a movie, and the screen suddenly flickers.
    (note to all future readers of this post: I do NOT want a better movie-player that reduces flickering. I know there's a certain tendency to answering questions by sidestepping the issue)

    Kind regards,
    Joris
