I have this same problem in Ubuntu 8.10. I have the latest version of Flash and the nVidia driver installed, and I have an nVidia 8600GT card. I'm not using Compiz. Full screen videos from YouTube, Hulu, and South Park are all jerky. The above workaround for trying to force hardware acceleration doesn't do anything for me. The only thing I've found that works so far is to keep switching back and forth and back and forth between full screen and windowed mode, and if you do that enough times, eventually one of the times you switch to full screen it'll start running smoothly like it should.
