this problem is UNSOLVABLE
Only a Linux maven would even read this problem. Only a Linux god would attempt to solve it. Only... (okay, that's enough, here's the problem already):
I've been trying to figure out this problem of glaring neon-like colors when I watch videos (see screenshot). I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the Adobe Flash player. I've tried upping the screen size by hitting F11 and then right clicking on the video, choosing "settings" and then hoping to uncheck "enable hardware acceleration" but it would not let me uncheck it. Someone helped me go into the nano editor and add
EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=0
to the Adobe file. That didn't work either. My latest thought was to try to force install the latest Adobe Flash Player in the Synaptic Manager but then I got warnings that I might damage dependencies.
Anybody have any suggestions on how I could overcome this issue? Thanks. Gregg (still on the nearly interminable adventure)
