I just upgraded without issue on a x86_64 F8 system. I installed the i386
version as I did not see a native 64bit version available using "yum list
'*flash*'". It seems to be much more CPU efficient. I haven't done any real
benchmarking but almost anything maxed my system out before (especially
really flash heavy sites like www.starcraft2.com) but now it works almost
flawlessly.
