How weird. Do you get the same flickering if you display the image using fbcon or svgalib or Microsoft Windows or MetroX or anything besides XFree86? If so, it's either your graphics card or monitor. If not, it's XFree86. Either way, it's strange. You say this came from a screenshot. What resolution are you using? What refresh rate does your screen run at? Have you tried with different resolutions and/or refresh rates? If your monitor or graphics card has an option to scale the image to fill the screen, try toggling it. Also, see if the image still causes trouble if you rotate the colors, convert it to black-and-white, rescale it horizontally, drop the red, green, and/or blue channels, blur it horizontally, and so on. -- Andy Goth | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://ioioio.net/ End communication. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
