(actually just recently, when native widget support was introduced, Joost Andrae kindly informed me on discuss list how i could force use of generic widgets)
so, to run with generic widgets you should run this in konsole (you're using kde, so it should be in K->system->konsole) :
export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen; soffice
if you can revert to nv driver and test oo.org with generic widgets - that might help to find out wether this flickering is the same problem or not.

hmm, interesting. i'm experiencing the same problem - but only with gtk widgets. with generic widgets everything was fine.
if possible, can you try the same combination of video drivers and kde with gtk and generic widgets to see wether this is reproducible with one or both sets of widgets ?
of course, i should mention that i am experiencing flicker on two different machines. one has i845g (i think) video - http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=40258 driver, other has some sort of s3 vieo card, so this probably isn't directly related to nv driver.
Well, I'm pretty new to Linux. Frankly, I'm sort of proud that I can say I now know how to switch out the video drivers by swapping out xorg.conf files. But I have no idea how to specify which set of widgets it should use.
