Bug Description
I have regular flickering screens (xinerama re-initialises them) in a dual-screen setup under gnome-2d, as can be seen in .xsession-errors and Xorg.0.log.
Sometimes metacity crashes then, as it was the case recently, when I had verbose logging-mode on.
Last 1000 lines of the log before the crash are here:

Line 764 looks to me like the reconfiguration due to a 'flicker'.
Console output of metacity (started from there with METACITY_VERBOSE=1 METACITY_
metacity:
and there is
/var/crash/
which I will attach.
I do not know, if the two problems are really related (metacity crash, xinerama re-init), but it looked like (happened at the same time).
Any debugging hints to find the reason for the xinerama re-init are welcome. Sometimes it is impossible to work due to high frequency of re-inits.
