You'll have to rebuild a kernel, as far as I can see, with the additional
option "SC_BAD_FLICKER", which stops this.  I'm not sure when this was added,
so you might have to upgrade (using cvsup), and then make your world and
kernel. (I had this problem with 2.2.5, never saw the option in the LINT
file, but when I went to 2.2.7-STABLE, I saw it, and added it, and it works
perfectly now)

Read the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/) sections on making new
kernels, and using cvsup to upgrade.  Also of interest is Nik Clayton's
"Making the world your own", at
http://www.nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk/make-world/make-world.html

Hope this helps.

Neil
