Got the same thing, except it's when I move the mouse on
the console. Config is:

2.2-Beta
Acer 950C P75 / 24 Mb, 800x600 DSTN -- Chips & Tech 65545

The screen flickers when I move the mouse in console mode
(Moused).

Just for the record, this machine's PCCARD only started working when
I applied the patches for PS/2 Keyboard !!

And then, moused won't work with the PS/2 mouse - only with
serial mice.
