I am running Fedora 14 and downloaded FF5. My default version if FF 3.6.17. I installed FF5 in /usr/lib/local/Firefox5-0. How do I install the Flash Player in this version? FF 3.6.17 runs Flash fine. I have the latest version of Flash installed but Ff5 does not recognize it.

That is kind of like the order I expected. If that is the case they why does FF5 not recognize a plugin that is stored there? I have copied the flash plugin there. FF 3.6.17 does find it but not FF5. If FF5 does not like the version that is there, will it tell me somehow?
