- I have found a problem with INTEL GME965 Express Chipset and Linux. Seems the screen flickers enormously when playing flash movies.

- Same movie and identical hardware except using and ATI card works - so the problem is confirmed to be the Intel graphics card.

- My only solution seems to be replacing the graphics card with an ATI or Nvidia - or is there a solution? is this bug well known?

- I have Linux intel driver: 2.6.0:
