Daniel, thanks, you're completely right. I downgraded my kernel to 3.16.7-031607-generic and the flickering problem went away. Definitely wondering if it has something to do with bug LP: #1408593 which also affected me when I upgraded to 3.18.

Status in Mir: New Status in mir package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After running mir_demo_server on VT 1, when I switch to VT 7 then back to VT 1, the demo server really flickers black quite a lot (entire screen, pointer included). I'm not sure, but I also upgraded my kernel to 3.18.2-031802-generic at the same time, if it's because of that, please mark invalid.
