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:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2132368&p=12641898#post12641898

  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"
