Interesting observation. I tried with a current (up to date) Lubuntu
16.04 LTS installed system.

Abiword flickers in a Lubuntu session.

But at the login screen I can also select Openbox (only the window
manager, no fancy desktop environment).

Abiword does not flicker in an Openbox session.

The difference is very obvious and repeatable. I need not reboot, only
log out, switch session (near the top right corner) and log into the
other session.
