If firefox crashes when you go to a page with flash on it (as mine does
with the current FC6 beta) try
env XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 firefox
You could also check to see if firefox sees the plugins by going to the
URL about:plugins
I also half-remember having problems (possibly font related) with flash
because I had a line like
 FontPath "unix/:7100"
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
