I'm encountering the same problem. Flash component that utilizes your webcam as input will be disallowed even if the user said yes to the security question. This is always reproducible by the following procedures. 1. use a ubuntu machine with webcam. 2. go to http://en.barcodepedia.com/ 3. accept the security prompt of the flash component in the left hand side of the page. 4. On a windows system, you should see the flash component showing your webcam image. But on my ubuntu system, the component said "access to webcam disallowed by user".
Operating system: ubuntu 8.04.01 firefox: 3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3 flashplugin-nonfree: 9.0.124.0ubuntu2 I tried to give you the backtrace, however, I failed to follow the instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs in the Crash section. Firefox-3.0-dbgsym fails to install due to unfulfilled dependencies. besides, I wonder the backtrace will help since firefox did not crash on such occasion. ** Attachment added: "flash component report webcam access disallow even if I allow it." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16577378/Screenshot.png -- Flash applet can not access webcam https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132976 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
