I finally wound up in /usr/lib64/firefox-3.0.14 where I had to add the directory /plugins and add the libflashplayer.so that I found on an obscure site in libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz None of this was documented anywhere that I could find, although I did trip on enough hints to keep me looking. I think I'm in my 8th or 9th Linux year, and still a newbie. I would be curious if someone has an easier way to do this.
