You'll probably find that you need to create links from Firefox to the
Flash-plugin.

ln
-s /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so /usr/local/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so

ln
-s /usr/lib/flash-plugin/flashplayer.xpt /usr/local/firefox/plugins/flashplayer.xpt

You'll probably have to change the Firefox path on the link, as mine on FC2 is
in /usr/local.

I tryed the following:

[fossiili@localhost plugins]$ ln -s /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
ln: creating symbolic link `/home/fossiili/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so' to `/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so': Fil e exists
[fossiili@localhost plugins]$ ln -s /usr/lib/flash-plugin/flashplayer.xpt ~/.mozilla/plugins/flashplayer.xpt
ln: creating symbolic link `/home/fossiili/.mozilla/plugins/flashplayer.xpt' to `/usr/lib/flash-plugin/flashplayer.xpt': File exists
[fossiili@localhost plugins]$

Then I closed Firefox and started it again.  In spite of your kind help. no Flash plugin working ...
