Are you using the 32-bit or 64-bit (alpha) Flash? I have had success with the 32-bit version using nspluginwrapper. If you installed the 32-bit version according to the instructions on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flash , you should not have to move any files manually. The flash-plugin package should have created a symlink to the plugin from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins ; if that didn't happen for some reason, then run "/usr/lib/flash-plugin/setup" as root. Then, the nspluginwrapper package should have generated a wrapper plugin at /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped/nswrapper_32_64.libflashplayer.so ; if that didn't happen, run "mozilla-plugin-config -i -f". Then restart Firefox. At that point, Flash should appear in about:plugins. Reply if it doesn't. -- Matt
