Whatever it is called: It flickers :-)

Well, I have toyed around a bit more. Here is what I found:
- - It flickers woth the matroxfb_accel driver (and the unaccelerated version 
thereof) from linux 2.2.16, 2.3.99pre5 and 2.4.0-test1-ac22.

- - The flickering is independent of the refresh rate of the screen. 60Hz is as 
bad as 90Hz.

- - The flickering depends on the screen resolution! At 640x480 it is hard to 
notice, at 1024x768 it awful.

- - The pageflip-demo shows exactly the same behaviour as berlin

I use a berlin with libart-DK which renders via GGI to the fbdev (on a Matrox 
Millenium G200).

Any suggestions? I appreciate your help so far very much..
