this doesn't make much sense.
from this it appears, that you installed
the wrong VMD package (i.e. the 64bit
version on a 32-bit linux installation),
but there should not be a "flashing"
at all when you launch VMD.

in any case, carefully uninstall everything VMD,
determine your architecture. type: uname -m
if it says "x86_64" you need the 64-bit version
(LINUXAMD64), if it says i686 you need the
32-bit version (LINUX).

if that doesn't help, i can only guess that your
entire linux installation is somewhat messed up.
