So I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 and I quite like it. But when playing WL I've come across some problems.
For example: if I enable Hard Disk Storage (used to store the maps on your computer so they load faster) I get a small dialog from adobe flash asking me to allow storage. That's all normal but the problem is I can't click it. I can't play unless I disable hard disk storage from the settings.

Anyone ever had this problem?
I'm new to Ubuntu, so any suggestions are welcome.
Also, the font on this page is pretty bad. The Open Game, My games etc are in really this letters, they look rly bad. Numbers also look bad. One's are like a single vertical line.
Any ideas on how I might be able to change this.

Yeah, a screen of what you're seeing would be helpful, but I guess you may be missing some fonts (the "My Games" uses Verdana), I think installing package named "msttcorefonts" (which contains some MS fonts) would help.

One way to take a screenshot is launching a specially designed application for it: Applications > Accessories > Take Screenshot.

Second method is to open GIMP and File > Create > Screenshot.

If you right-click, select Settings, and drag the storage slider up to Max, the storage prompt won't need to come up.

Did you try changing the font size? It's Crtl & "+/-" on most browsers.

ctrl + (+/-) will change the zoom, not the font.

Fizzer, i cant click the damn thing at all.

I'm surprised that no one else has this problem. I tried playing with the last version of ubuntu and it was the same....

I use Ubuntu (Narwhal currently, other versions in the past), I have not had such problems, on several machines (using firefox and also opera), though maybe I turned the local storage off. Sorry I cannot help you, but I just wanted to say that for this Ubuntu user (me), it works fine.

I also have this problem sometimes, depending on the browser. it's really not a warlight issue as a flash problem. for example on firefox the same happens to me on warlight while with chromium warlight works well, but other flash programs do not (with the same problem). I do not know how to solve it, but maybe you can try changing browser and see if it works just as it did with me

Change storage settings here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html

Then the pop-up won't come up.
