I’ve noticed that Flash images bleed through any part of a screen that is
supposed to be pure black. The bleeding is not limited to applications on
one desktop, the Flash image can bleed through from one desktop to
another.
I can see this effect in text and the shadows of the tiles in Kmahjongg
amongst other things. I closed down “plugin-containe” (usually it’s
npviewer so that’s different) and the bleed stopped. Reloaded one of the
FF5 pages with Flash content and the problem reappeared.
I have run a 64-bit session on this machine with no such difficulties.
The version number of the driver is 270.41.06-5.1.
Another oddity, that may or may not be relevant, is that the system
monitor says “X” is running, not “xorg.” How come?

I’m using KDE and so Compiz is not installed. Thanks for trying, Brian.

then i see our similarities only in the proprietary nvidia driver - if you use it. try upgrading and downgrading of the nvidia driver. of course, if i would use the novou driver for me this would be gone since 3d and thus compiz would not work…

I’d use the nouveau driver if I could put up with my PC locking-up every
day and having to reboot it by using the reset button!

so got a “new” x86_64 laptop - second hand - with an Nvidia Go 6200.
can confirm this again with compiz, however flash is broken with and without compiz. on youtube for example, it will not show some parts of the video and instead display black parts. also the control interface is not visible but pure black.
i don’t know where this leads us, but i’d go with flash since i used a stable - but at least 10 months old version - of the nvidia driver on my desktop. i’m gonna check with older versions of flash, if i can find them.
p.s.: my workaround is to download the vids with JDownloader.
