[Bug 410407] Re: flash does not recognise mouse clicks

[Adam]

I tried again and now firefox crashes...  I got a stacktrace from the
core file, but it was of little help since I don't have debugging
symbols.  I tried installing firefox-3.5-dbg, but that package doesn't
include the firefox binary, only a couple libs (.so files).  After
removing libflashplayer.so from ~/.mozilla/plugins/ firefox no longer
crashes, so it's quite clear that the plugin from Adobe is the problem.

mozilla-plugin-gnash wouldn't play youtube videos (no audio, no video)
for me.

swfdec-mozilla played the video reasonably well (some glitches, but it
generally looked OK), but no audio.

For the record I'm on an AMD64 machine with ubuntu karmic and I use ALSA
for my sound.  My window manager is metacity.

It looks like chrome has the same issue, also indicating that it's the adobe plugin.  Some people have reported switching window managers to fix the issue.
