Flash is not working at all, or just no sound in flash?

For sound support make sure you have the libflashsupport package 
installed, it is not installed by default:

	yum install libflashsupport


If flash is not working at all, only two things come to mind:

1) is this a 64bit install with a 64bit firefox? If yes, install the 
32bit firefox:

	rpm -e firefox.x86_64
	yum install firefox.i386

2) try removing the flash package and install it again:

	rpm -e flash-plugin
	yum install flash-plugin
