I see you did quite some debugging. I once again tried to reproduce this, but still can't. I see bios and sislinux switching the resolution between 640x480 and 720x400 a few times, just like you describe, but it never start flickering here. However I see one interesting difference between our setup. What is your screen size, and desktop area size? On your video, the VM window size is close to your desktop size. I remember seeing some strange effects when the VM window (together with all the frame and decorations) becomes a bit larger than the "desktop" size as reported by your desktop environment (which is the screen size minus various menus, panels, bars etc which occupes constant place on the screen). Might this be an issue in your case? Note this happens especially with sdl1, not with sdl2 (iirc) or gtk, it is the sdl1 code. However I still fail to see how this can be timing-related... :) Thanks, /mjt
