Firefox loaded up with a couple of its most desirable extensions, and hey, by damn I even have sound, at least a few bings now and then. I had this crazy thought that I might be able to goto cnn.com, download flash, and watch some news WITH sound, but I've now downloaded both the yum version and the rpm, both claim they installed, but cnn still says no. Has this got an easy fix? Thanks. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
