Bug Description
Hey, running Ubuntu 12.04 here on multiple 64-bit machines, both Intel64 and AMD64, and both are experiencing the same problem, no matter on what web browser, including Google Chrome:
The Flash Player settings dialogue is unresponsive to mouse clicks, unless in full screen.
This makes a HUGE problem for my friend that has Ubuntu 12.04 x64 on her laptop that uses her webcam and microphone, because she can't enable them to be used in Flash, because the dialogue is unresponsive. I have the same problem on my Ubuntu 12.04 machine when I try to change the settings in my Flash Player. Even though I don't have a webcam or mic, it might be good to disable hardware acceleration someday, which I cannot currently do, due to the same issue. I have tried all sorts of things, like installing the i386 version of Chrome and forcing it to work, and installing older versions of Chrome and Flash, neither worked. The same happens on every single web browser I use on 12.04. This may cause a security vulnerability, as a website that currently has access to a person's webcam and mic cannot be denied of the access now.
This needs to be fixed. Now.
