Ah, a flicker-free 640x512 screen on my 1084S, that
has been my dream for many years. Using the
euro36 driver the flicker was much more acceptable( it won't work on a normal TV set, btw).
I kept using an interlaced screen until a summer, when I had some type of light epilepsy attack, or this is what I think it was. At that time, after one week I haven't touched my Amiga, I saw some sort of flashes appear in front of me, even if it was daytime and the people around me didn't noticed any flash. I was quite surprised. After this  I decided to borrow a VGA adaptor and to buy an expensive 17" vga monitor. A wise choice, as I never ever had this type of problems again.
