I followed that procedure and emailed the maintainers on 8/15 (Comments #6 and #8), so I have just now resent it, adding the results of the kernel bisection and also noting that the latest mainline kernel still suffers from the problem (and that the recent update to flashplugin-installer, 11.2.202.310, did not fix it either). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212455 Title: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what works: - Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer) - Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome) what fails: - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5 - Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem. WORKAROUND: Setting the Intel driver's acceleration method to UXA rather than its default SNA *always* fixes the Flash problem, but causes a garbled login screen under LightDM that so far has no workaround. I also tried one possible fix for the default Intel SNA acceleration using the TearFree option. I created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with contents: Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "sna" Option "TearFree" "true" EndSection But this had no effect.
