Thanks! I did not pay close attention as in the past (a long time ago)
there was a X11 configuration file in /etc/X11 and I thought Felix meant
that one.
I have uploaded Xorg.0.log files before and after the flashing screen:

There is no difference. Also, it may be an issue with memory bandwidth of
this particular card? It is a Intel 965GM. I use VMD for molecular
representation. If I choose to represent all atoms as spheres (instead of
just dots), then the screen flashes and VMD crashes. If I represent only a
small number of atoms as spheres, then it is fine.
It if helps, here is the output from the program VMD that I use for
molecular visualization:

Otherwise, the video card seems to work fine. I can watch movies on
youtube, but if I select a fullscreen representation, then the video
output gets slow although the sound plays fine.
Thanks!
Gianluca
It is created automatically on X startup. The prior
log is:
/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
