    Click on the Install Missing Plugins button that appears on the right side of the bar when you visit youtube, It will let firefox search and install the available plugins for you... Did you try it out? You must do it. Make sure that after the flash plugin is installed, restart firefox to let the plugin load in firefox and so that you can then play flash based flv videos that youtube hosts...

    Open Terminal and type :
    Code:
    rpm -qa | grep flash
    Now install the one which is shown. Or you can go a much easier way, go to adobe website and download the flash player package for your OS. : http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
