Ncurses flickering.

[Brendan inglese]

Hi , sorry about my last message, mozilla plays games with me :-/

I know this may be a bit off topic, but ive been messaging newsgropus
and lots of places but to no avail so i come here in a final bid to
get my answer,  im using linux(2.4.10 , slackware 8)
and FreeBSD 4.3 , the  freebsd meachine runs my program, but does not 
flicker,
but the linux one runs it and it flickers every time the screen is 
refreshed , the entire screen
flickers even though that only one (small) window is refreshed :-(
the freebsd terminal type is 'cons25', and on linux ive tryed 'xterm' 
and 'linux', and 'vt100'.
how can i elminiante this unwanted flickering, thanks :-)
