Redhat 9, ATI Radeon 7500, DVI digital display -- output flaky

Redhat 9, ATI Radeon 7500, DVI digital display -- output flaky

Greetings,

Have redhat 9 installed (I bought a RHN subscription, eh).

I have an ATI Radeon 7500 video card, and a Viewsonic VP201m LCD monitor
which runs at 1600x1200.

While it runs, the output is flaky (I get flashes, some web pages look
bad, I get grainy little lines drawn on my screen). Something is
clearly wrong.

I am using the updated redhat stock kernel. Yes, the radeon modules is
running.

Attached is my /etc/X11/XF86Config

Anyone else had this kind of problem???
