Sorry i came to late to this issue again,
but i have an FC5, updated from an FC4 both with SELinux on,
and had no problem with Flashplugin or with mplayer both of them working
good here.
The only problem i had was with Squid, wich worked well with my FC4 but
after updating it stop working with parents/siblings it did the
inquiries with UDP 3130 but after having a UPD_HIT answer it was not
able to ask the object with TCP 3138, until I disable SELinux on Squid.
The other problem i had was with Cacti that on another FC4 i have, Cacti
was not able to draw the graphs as it was installed on
/usr/share/
and the rrdtool was not able to read and/or the /usr/share/cacti/rra
directory I think as Apache user.
I had to disable SELinux on that box, as i had no time to study more on
it to know if it was an option of configuring it to make it work.
maybe disabling only Apache from SELinux
I have a good firewall and denyhosts daemon on that server so security
as far as i think i working.
hope it helps.
regards.
Guillermo.

Thank you Craig and Kam. However selinux will disable flash plugin for
firefox, prevent mplayer from playing .mkv files, etc. All of these
are quite essential for desktop users.
