Konqueror webbrowser 3.5.9, compiz-fusion, flash = froze mouse input

[Drew Kraus]

Greetings,
   The friendly folks on #kde suggested that I email you with the issue that 
our kde terminals are experiencing at our studios.  We have been running 
PCLinuxOS on our machines with KDE and Compiz-Fusion for quite some time now. 
However, we are experiencing an new issue regarding konqueror in "webbrowser" 
mode and flash, while in compiz-fusion 3d desktop mode.  While in 3d mode 
(native 3d desktop, unable to test XGL) interacting with flash pages 
(gametrailer.com video playback controls, for example) will cause mouse 
inputs to cease and sometimes the pointer will disappear all together.  
However, when the mouse is visible, it still moves on the screen and 
keyboard/video udpates are fine.. But, when having compiz locate the position 
of the pointer, it shows the last position where the mouse was clicked to 
interact with the flash elements.  This problem has begun after a recent kde 
3.5.9 update from the offical pclinuxos repositories, but compiz was also 
updated around the same time.  So it is hard to know which is the culprit. 
Here is more information regarding this.  Firefox and opera do not suffer 
this flash/compiz/mouse issue.  Konqueror does not have this issue while in 
2d mode, plus if the konq window was opened while in 2d mode, it will 
function correctly after being put into 3d mode (via compiz-icon).  Any konq 
window opened while already in 3d desktop mode, will fail.  Also, these 
problems have been reproduced on all of our terminals with vary from low-end 
to high-end nvidia cards (running different drivers across that spectrum) and 
non-nvidia terminals (gma 950 intel systems). Are there any known issues like 
this already? If not, wanted to let someone know if there is a problem out 
there now.

Thank you,
