Wait a second, was just scimming this and saw you mention blue faces. I have a 210 using the latest binary drivers from nvidia and it seems like all red color shows up as blue in the flash player (and only flash player). It had never happened any time previously, and this was a new install.
Frankly I have no idea how to fix it, but I mostly ignored it until now because of html5 videos (where the problem doesn't occur).
Not sure I'll be able to reply with details after this but I thought I'd mention it....

The proprietary driver partly works. Static images (jpeg/gif/png/etc)
are OK. 1080p HD Flash videos play fullscreen without stuttering. But
colours are way off on hue. Faces are blue (no, this wasn't the "Avatar"
trailer <G>). Mplayer totally locks up the machine as soon as I start
it. I have to resort to Magic-Sysrq to bail out without forcing a major
fsck. Here are the card details from "lspci -v"...

I'm file-attaching the Xorg log and the xorg.conf, if they'll help.
