This is not a new problem. It persist for several versions of flash etc. I
do not know what exaacly is causing this, wherether it is X screen
handling, gecko or flash itself. You can usually workaround it by usign
different navigation path or just blindly clicking on "invisible" menu.
This is definitely not a FC issue. Most probably you should blame
macromedia/adobe. (I've heard something about flash 9 comming to linux,
you can check it.)
