It's not much more work to get flash working. I have it working on two F8 64bit systems and two F9 64 bit systems. Install the adobe-linux yum repo to get flash (and keep it updated). Make sure you install the i386 package of nspluginwrapper as it doesn't appear to be installed by default but you need both.

It's not much more work to get flash working. I have it working on two F8 64bit systems and two F9 64 bit systems. Install the adobe-linux yum repo to get flash (and keep it updated). Make sure you install the i386 package of nspluginwrapper as it doesn't appear to be installed by default but you need both.
