The 'desktop effects' preferences control whether you have 'compiz' on 
or off. In Ubuntu I believe if you look under 
System->Preferences->Desktop Effects and choose no effects that will 
turn off compiz. At this point if your flash video works ok then the 
problem has to do with Compiz and flash together. And you've found a bug 
in the flash player that Adobe would probably want to know about.
