I've come back to this issue of the Fox News Channel videos not wanting to play, because perhaps I have some more information that might provide a clue.
Fox News Channel hosts a number of videos, and provides an embedding link to each one. About an hour ago, I went to find one. When my Fedora 12/Firefox 3.5.8 setup wouldn't play nice, I went to another machine that had Windows XP on it. I was able to play the video there, and to get the embedding script. I got it and pasted it into an article I wrote.
And when I went to display my article, guess what? The video wouldn't play.
Here is the link to the article I wrote, that has the embedded video:
Here is the embedding URL I used:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://video.foxnews.com/v/embed.js?id=4106724&w=400&h=249"></script><noscript>Watch
the latest news video at<a href="http://video.foxnews.com/">video.foxnews.com</a></noscript>
And now: here is what that script embed.js contains:
if(document.domain.indexOf('rightscoop')< 0) { document.write(''); }
And that's it.

Played fine here, Firefox 3.6.2,

Time to update your browser.

Then you recommend abandoning the Fedora build and going directly to Mozilla for their latest RPM?
And the same with Flash? I'm using "R45"; you have "D51."
