[15.36 Vanilla] Sprites Flickering White

Re-posted this from reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... 01536_bug/) per a mod's suggestion:

Specs:

Intel Celeron 2 GHz (2 cores)
64-bit Ubuntu 14.04
4GB RAM

(Edited my post to include more information):

Nothing in particular really causes this glitch to happen, it happens randomly while playing any map.
The sprites will flicker white on and off very quickly for about 2 seconds, go away for half a minute, and then come back. Zooming out more causes this to happen on a bigger scale and way more frequently (largely to trees). This has been happening ever since I got Factorio, however moreso as of late.

I've attached:
a. A screenshot of my graphics configuration,
and
b. The log I had after I had finished playing (therefore also after I had noticed this bug).

I can provide more info if needed. Any help is appreciated!

Try reducing the texture size to 4096 (you can see the setting in your screenshot).
If that does not do it, it might help to diagnose if you could capture the flicker in a screenshot or gif.
