Flash:
Be sure you have configured the Macromedia repository as described in the Yum section above.
If you have not already done so go to "System" > "Administration" > "Security Level and Firewall". Enter your root password and click "ok". On the "SELinux" tab click on "Modify SELinux Policy", click on "Compatibility" to open it and tick the check box next to "Allow the use of shared libraries with Text Relocation". Click "ok". Reboot your machine to implement the new SELinux policy.
Open the terminal. Type: su -
Hit enter. Type your root password. Hit enter.
Type: yum -y install flash-plugin
Hit enter. Click "accept" in the license agreement windows that appears. Wait for the installation to complete. (Note: If the Macromedia license agreement does not appear you may have to type "/usr/lib/flash-plugin/setup install" at the root prompt and hit enter.)
At the moment there is a bug in Flash that prevents it from displaying normal text in FC5. To resolve this enter the following command as root: "mkdir -p /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fs/", hit enter and then enter the following command also as root: "ln -s /etc/X11/fs/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fs/config", hit enter and then log out and back in.
Restart Firefox to enable the flash plugin. You could go to
