I was wondering if anyone is having pixels flashing or other solid discolored pixels?

The entire ambient screen and all applications seem to have pixel flashing and particular applications like Pagestream have pink pixels randomly.

The is true for both displays.

This may have started when I updated to the latest bigfoot drivers.

My video card is an X1900 PCIe in a PowerMac.

Probably some cold solder somewhere on the VRAM in your X1900 PCIe card... :/

If you can find someone skilled for BGA reballing around you. He might improve the situation. I did it once for a Powerbook G4 and it solved the display issues I had.
