One problem is left over from this. Sometimes, let's say in one
of 20 starts, the LCD display is not fully in sync, it is flickering
somehow showing the same picture more the ones, but shifted; it
is difficult to describe exactly (I'm not a native in English)
that's why I've put here some fotos:

Sometimes if the X11 is clearly displayed, going back to an alpha
console let flicker the alpha console too in nearly the same way.

Any idea where to go, what to change?

Thx
