Default Mac Chrome's Flash is awful?

Now I've only tried chrome on my mac here, which is a toshiba m115 s3094 with Kalyway 10.5.7, but it works almost exactly like a mac book pro.

Whenever I try to use anything that has flash, youtube video or flash game, the like, it doesn't want to cooperate. The flash doesn't seem to have access to my keyboard inputs, and whenever I CLICK anywhere, nothing happens.

If I DOUBLE click things, THEN it acts as though a SINGLE click was used, and I actually CAN progress through flash things. But I can't double click and hold to scroll or anything within flash things.

Is this standard in mac or is there something weird going on?

(I used Mac beta 4.0 for a while, then switched to 5.0 dev version, NO change in flash problem)

Mac + Flash have always been a issue. They just don't go well together... Same with stuff like iPad... Just Apple.

I would just live with it. Or try and use Linux/Windows

Apple is a funny company. They release the Ipad without Flash because Jobs says Flash is bad and buggy, yet Flash works great on PCs. Um, Steve, maybe it's your products that are bad and buggy? Maybe you should check into that? Just a thought. Anyway. Yes Mac/Apple and Flash do not play well together.

Because flash works perfectly on safari and firefox, even though I hate safari and would prefer to use Chrome over Firefox.

Although... there was one time I had both Chrome and Firefox open, and after BEARING flash on Chrome for a while, I went back to Firefox, and IT was experiencing the double click issue. So I'm wondering WHERE this comes from.

It's a Chrome-specific issue, so if a solution comes about, it'll be really nice.

I highly resent that comment.
The buginess of Flash has nothing to do with Apple's software. That's exactly like saying, because some piece of crapware on any OS, that that OS is buggy and what not.
