Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

On my Nvidia Geforce Go 6100, the text in the  Ctrl Alt Fx consoles
flicker. By flicker, I mean that the text moves up and down a few pixels
multiple times a second. This happens continually, but the exact
subsecond spacing of the movement seems to be random.

I'm using the Nvidia Driver, but I think it also happens with the new
open source driver. I will check and confirm this.
