Lockup in full screen (solved)

I'm very much enjoying Arch. Runs good, looks good but,
when watching flash videos in fullscreen the screen hang with no way to close.
It says hit Esc to quit but it does nothing, the close button on bottom does nothing.
I usually ctrl+alt+back to escape
More info:
ati xpress 200m

 "Module"

        Load  "ddc"  # ddc probing of monitor
    Load  "dbe"
    Load  "dri"
    Load  "extmod"
    Load  "glx"
    Load  "bitmap" # bitmap-fonts
        Load  "xtrap" 
    Load  "freetype"
    Load  "record"
        Load  "synaptics"
  "Device"
    Identifier  "Card0"
    Driver      "fglrx"
    VendorName  "All"
    BoardName   "All"
        Option      "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "on"
        Option      "VideoOverlay"           "on"
    BusID       "PCI:1:5:0"
Section "Extensions"
    Option        "XVideo" "on"
    Option        "Composite" "on"
EndSection

Section "DRI"
    Mode         0666

I have totem, mplayer, and vlc installed with all the plugins (i think)

Re: Lockup in full screen (solved)

afaik, this is a flash 9 problem, I've heard that the flash 10 beta fixed this, not sure as I haven't tested it myself

Flash 10 beta seems to have done the trick.
