Thanks for the links. My problem seems to be more closely related to the wireless system than those of the posters on those sites; indeed, that's why I originally posted here, since the flicker seemed to be so closely coupled to the bcm43xx driver. It's certainly possible, though, for anything that I know, that it's a hardware bug that just happens, on my machine, to be triggered by some perfectly legitimate bit of the bcm43xx code.
