There are quite a few messages on the NVnews Linux forum by now
complaining about this issue. It looks like it's not just screen
flicker. The latest (8756) driver appears to reject in some cases any
vertical refresh frequency higher than approx. 70...75Hz.
Sometimes, that brings a complete disruption of the normal functioning
of the display (the screen goes dark at certain resolutions) as the card
and the monitor do not agree anymore on a common set of parameters
(resolution + refresh rate).
