Description Michael 2009-04-13 03:58:59 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc (Ubuntu 4.3.3-5ubuntu4) 4.3.3 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When viewing a web page in KHTML, Flash works correctly. When viewing a web page in WebKit, it also seems to work, except that clicking anywhere results in no action. Typing works, so I am able to kill nspluginviewer and restart KWin, which fixes the problem. Since KWin is involved, I should mention that I have composite enabled.

Can confirm this bug on Ubuntu jaunty with last svn...

Seems to be related to kwin.
Workaround: configure konqueror to load plugins "on demand"

I cannot reproduce this issue after the fix by Dawit Alemayehu in r1010646.
