F9beta worked like a charm. I did a clean install of the f9-prev, installed the *repo for adobe flash, installed the flash (as I did for the F9 Beta) and I have no sound from the flash website. Sound works from mp3s and from ogg, so what do I need to do to have sound.
Leslie PS as for more info. I am using the 686 version (32 bit) so that I do not ndiswrapper I have switched sound option from autodetect to pulse, in case the problem is in that area.

All Fedora platforms now need nspluginwrapper for plugins with Firefox. This was done for reasons related to SELinux best I can tell... (possibility to lock down npviewer.) I assume this is what you mean, as ndiswrapper isn't related. If you removed nspluginwrapper, reinstall it.

No, the most important reason is a protection against badly written binary- only plugins. So, plugins are now out of the Firefox process, so when they crash they don't take whole Firefox down as well. SELinux locking down was only using the opportunity created for other reasons.

You'll need 'libflashsupport' installed for flash to work properly. 'nspluginwrapper' is also recommended, even on 32-bit machines - it makes plugins run in their own subprocess, so flash can't make firefox crash (as easily).
