John Hupp, marking Triaged against Adobe given upstream discussion. Hence, the
issue you are reporting is an upstream one. It would be nice if somebody having
it could send the bug to the developers of the software via
https://bugbase.adobe.com/?event=newBug :
Product: Adobe Flash Player
** Description changed:
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
Good news -- Daniel Vetter from the upstream maintainers list responded
to the email with the more descriptive SUBJECT.
He wrote:
Still a flash bug. This commit simply enables rgb555 in the kernel,
which sna likes to use on gen2/3. Flash is just too dense and always
presumes xrgb.

The latest mainline kernel (3.11.0-031100-generic, modified 9-2-13)
still suffers from the bug.
Software Update also offered an updated version of the Flashplugin-
Installer (updating 11.2.202.297 to 11.2.202.297), but that did not fix
the problem either.

I was in the process of building the mainline kernel for the first commit

In an off-Launchpad direct exchange, I received some direction that You
would want to bisect the mainline kernel instead of the Ubuntu kernel.
I should say more directly that I have never done kernel bisection until
now, though I'm game for the effort. Nonetheless, very little can be

John Hupp, not to disagree with a maintainer, but cursorily if the flash
