I want to add 2 things:
1.) the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf was not existent on my system, I had to create
it new. Is that correct?
2.) xxx:~$ sudo lshw | grep "VGA\|Display" -A10

Title:
My Dell Dimension desktop shows purple/green and distorted Flash video
unless acceleration method is changed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
1. Lubuntu 13.04 / Linux 3.8.0.-19-generic
2. I do not know and can not check as the computer in question is no longer
in my possession
Flash does not play movies properly, resulting in a purple/green
screen that is completely out of proportion.
Happens mainly on Dell Dimension computers with an Intel chipset:

One user reported falling back to an older Kernel as a workaround
"I did find the following workaround. When booting, I choose the
Advanced Ubuntu options and pick either Linux 3.5.0-27-generic or
Linux 3.2.0-40-generic. With either, the video/flash is fine. The
default kernel is Linux 3.8.0-19-generic, and that is the version
where it does not work"
