	Sure!  Try this page:

http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoid=BIOW

In step 5 ignore their suggestion about the menu item
help-->AboutPlugins and type 'about:blugins' in the location bar instead
if you don't see the flash player listed, you could try again, after
disabling selinux before installing it (don't know if this is still a
problem or not, but it costs little to try.)
