I have the same problem with 12.10 (and Gnome-Shell), and I found a workaround: DOUBLE-click the fullscreen icon. (So it seems to be a focus problem.)

After that it automatically exits full screen mode. The full screen view appears to work fine for the one second that it stays up (e.g., the video continues to update properly), but it always exits full screen mode right after. I have tested Firefox and Epiphany and the bug occurs in both. I am running Ubuntu Intrepid 32-bit on a Dell XPS M1710 laptop with an NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS and Compiz enabled. I have dual monitors in the "Separate X Screen" configuration. Their resolutions are 1920x1200 and 1920x1080. The bug happens on both monitors. I have not customized or altered the configuration of Flash in any way (e.g., no -extrasound package, no .asoundrc, etc.). $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.10 Release: 8.10 $ apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree flashplugin-nonfree: Installed: 10.0.12.36ubuntu1 Candidate: 10.0.12.36ubuntu1 Version table: *** 10.0.12.36ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/multiverse Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/306088/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
