Hi.
I've just switched my old graphics card ATI Radeon 9600 for newer HD 3450 and I have a problem with monitor blinking.
I use kde as a desktop environment. After booting to kdm, everything is fine, but after logging in blinking starts.
The screen is blinking even inside ttys and even after X is killed. An odd thing is that it doesn't happened if i use openbox instead of kde.
I use xf86-video-ati drivers and the card uses AGP bus.
I've been looking into dmesg and Xorg.0.log, but I don't see a problem in there.
I am enclosing a relevant part of dmesg:

Try disabling kernel modesetting ([drm] radeon kernel modesetting enabled) using the radeon module parameters.
Disabling this allowed me to get a system using a Radeon X1250 into a usable state.

I knew I forgot to write something. I actually tried disable KMS, but without it X server doesn't work at all. The screen goes black
and Xorg.0.log says:
(EE) AIGLX error: Calling driver entry point failed
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software renderingHave I done something wrong?

Same to me, I saw there is a patch in bug tracker but it's time taking and actually I want clean system. Btw, maybe you know how to change resolution on nouveau driver?

Kernel-2.6.38.4 will have this fix:
