I can inform that this bug is also present on my Acer Aspire 5003wlmi,
same graphics. The last three versions of Ubuntu have had this problem
(yes - even 8.04). I would describe the screen kinda 70's - like someone
from the 70's went in and poured a bucket of '70's essence' over the
computer. The screen flickers a bit, and the most dominant colour is
pink or shades of pink. I have tried to find a solution (pulling the
battery out, holding the power button, shutting down and letting the
laptop stay for some time), but nothing seems to work - not even
starting the Windows XP partition seems to help, and Windows XP displays
colours the right way no matter what.

Another thing is this: the boot graphics (the Ubuntu logo and the
loading bar) shows the true colours, just like Windows XP.

Last note: I can happilæy shut down the laptop and turn it on when the
colours are the way they are meant to be, but as soon as the colours are
funky, it just wont change, not matter how many reboots.
