That probably has more to do with the video drivers than glest itself.
Glest is very unlikely to get an major changes until the Advanced Glest gets released.
When I test the game on an rv280 the game doesn't appear to flicker.
If you are using an nVidia card, the 3d support is experimental. Glest won't start on my NV28.

hey,

I had the idea that it would be the video drivers. Guess I'll have to wait. Thanks, closing as NOT A BUG
