+<note>
+Conky needs Double Buffer Extension (DBE) support from X server to prevent
+flickering, because it can't update window fast enough without it. It can be
+enabled in <path>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</path> with <c>Load "dbe"</c> line in
+<b>Section "Module"</b>.
+</note>
+
 <p>
 Once you have an idea of how Conky looks, you can now move on to configuring
 it!

 Unlike other system monitors such as top, Conky can run as a window in an X
