  ===+++ _____________________ !  ALL USERS  !  _____________________ +++===
  ===+++ READ THIS BEFORE MAKING A COMMENT OR MODIFICATION +++===

  IMPORTANT 1: Please see the WORKAROUND a few lines below.

  IMPORTANT 2: Please don't post any "me too message"; use the "Does
  this bug affect you?" feature you can find a bit above this bug
  description on launchpad.

  IMPORTANT 3: Do not post anything if you haven't read all comments to
  verify that your point hasn't been made. If you feel tempted to stop
  reading because there are too many messages, that is a strong
  indicator that you shouldn't add even more comments. Developers have a
  tough time to find anything if you post redundant stuff. So please
  abstain from doing that.

  =================================================

  So here the bug and workarounds.

  For example on youtube, whilst it recognises my mouse moving over
  various buttons, actual mouse clicks are not recognised. I can
  navigate using 'tab' but this is very painful. I can also right click.
  The problem doesn't occur with other flash players, e.g. swfdec-
  mozilla.

  WORKAROUND 1: Disable compiz
  WORKAROUND 2: Remove flashplugin-nonfree / flashplugin-installer and install from adobe
  WORKAROUND 3: Open a terminal and enter:

  gksudo gedit /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer

  Then add: export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 before the last line of text

  Note: Chrome & Chromium are now working fine without workaround

  These workaround's have been verified to work for some users. We don't
  need verification of whether or not they work for you.
