If you have an Nvidia card and the binary drivers, things flickering in Unity is an extremely well-known issue that you can Google for various "folk remedies" (Canonical seems unwilling to fix it, and it doesn't happen in e.g. Fedora or SuSE or Arch). For me, there was some stuff in an advanced settings panel that worked, but I don't recall the details.
