Leap 42.1 - Video Flashing in Intensity


Running Leap 42.1 64 bit on the setup listed below. Install is clean on new system.

Have intermittent problem with monitor screen rapidly flashing in intensity. Using the on-board graphics package on the motherboard. Problem occurs on all software and all screens. Always after running for a few hours. Don't know if the problem is heat or software incompatibility or something else.

Any suggestions on dealing with the issue would be appreciated.

Motherboard: asus m5a 78M m usb3
CPU: AMD FX 8320 eight core
Chipset: AMD 760G (780L)/SB710
Ram: 8X2=16 ddr3 gigs
Graphics: Integrated ATI Radeon HD 3000 GPU

Hi,

Do you by any chance use the desktop effects? I've seen this happen before when the desktop effects crashes. Restarting the X-server fixes your issue then. If you're using the nouveau driver, you may want to try the proprietary AtI driver to fix your issue.
