Title:
  Filling out an online survey from  PBS link as below

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  https://www.viewerslikeyouadvisors.org/S.aspx?r=4xYlGb.gWkCCWrFq0QcOcw&s=103&m=600000126 
   Results in screen corruption in small or large areas of the form which make it unreadable or unusable.
  Notified them of trouble and they said " update to Ubuntu version of Adobe flash player"
   done: result, no change.
  This same problem occured last year at this time with PBS survey form
   Not sure if this is Nvidia problem or Adobe.
  Further info:
   Just did a splash of updates that were probably relased yesterday.
  using Ubuntu 13.10 on Dell  Inspiron 9300.
  Problem is reproduceable and occurred again after new adobe flash player install 
  Screenshots of :
  -corruption
  -changes and adds today by me and updates
