+ - This bug report is saturated of comments: only post if you have read all the previous ones and you are sure what you will say is very relevant. In any other case, just mark the bug as affecting you.
+ - This bug refers to ANY button being unclickable, not only the ones from the control panel dialogues. For that, refer to bug #1184383.
  
  ****************
  HOW TO REPRODUCE
  ****************
- 1. Go to a web-page that uses your web-cam.
- 2. Switch on the web-cam through the interface provided in the web-page.
- 3. When you are asked to allow the web-cam to be accessed by Adobe Flash, click on the "Allow" button.
+ - Try to click on a button inside a Flash screen.
  
- *********
- BEHAVIOUR
- *********
- - EXPECTED: The button to be clicked.
- - REAL: Its impossible to click any button from the Adobe Flash dialogue that appeared.
+ ******************
+ EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR
+ ******************
+ - The button to be clickable.
  
- ***********
- WORK-AROUND
- ***********
- - Use the web-page control panel instead, at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/es/flashplayer/help/settings_manager08.html.
+ **************
+ REAL BEHAVIOUR
+ **************
+ - The button isn't clickable.
  
- ****************
- RELEVANT DETAILS
- ****************
- - Affects any GNOME 3 based desktop environment, which uses 3D desktop effects.
- - Doesn't affect Unity 2D, KDE, XFCE and LXDE desktop environments.
- - Affects any web-browser.
- - Gnash is incompatible with these dialogues too.
- - "swfdec-mozilla" is now a dummy package for Gnash.
- - Installing the Flash Player from Adobe's web-page has the same effect.
+ ************
+ WORK-AROUNDS
+ ************
+ Note: Some of these may not work for you.
+ 
+ For Ubuntu previous to 10.10:
+ - To open a terminal and enter "gksudo gedit /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer". Then to add: "export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1" before the last line of text.
+ - To disable desktop effects (Compiz).
+ 
+ For Ubuntu from 10.10 to 12.04:
+ - In the log-in screen, to switch to the "Ubuntu 2D" desktop environment.
+ 
+ For any Ubuntu version:
+ - To use "Alt + Tab" for navigating throught different buttons.
+ - To use the "browser-plugin-gnash" package instead; but it only will work with YouTube, with no fullscreen and not videos greater than 480p. On the other hand it will also not crash, and many videos now work using HTML 5 by activating it from http://www.youtube.com/html5.
+ - To use the Chromium web browser instead.
+ - To use Unity 2D, KDE, XFCE or LXDE desktop environments instead.
+ - To open videos through Totem video player instead.
