Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-orca
When on a webpage with flash content the page works correctly. When attempting to load a second page, (clicking on a link), it says "loading please wait", and the computer freezes. The only way to get everything back that I have found is ctrl-alt-backspace. This bug works on any page with audio/video flash content. I have found a work around. As soon as the link is clicked press Orca key-q to exit Orca. This must be done as soon as you press enter on a link or the computer will freeze. After you press the Orca key-Q which will exit Orca, it is then possible to press alt-f2 and type orca folowed by enter to get Orca back. If done correctly, everything works as expected.
Using Ubuntu Hardy with Gnash from the repositories.
