Thanks for the quick response.  The rpm from the above link was 
flash-plugin-7.0.25-1.i386.rpm, but I tried it anyway.  I ran the rpm
-iv  flash-plugin-7.0.25-1.i386.rpm and it installed OK, see info
below:
rpm -iv flash-plugin-7.0.25-1.i386.rpm
warning: flash-plugin-7.0.25-1.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature:
NOKEY, key ID 8df56d05
Preparing packages for installation...
flash-plugin-7.0.25-1
Setup is complete.

I tried going to a site enabled by flash, (www.orjistylez.com) and the
site said I need to install flash.  Other sites give the same status. 
Guess I will have to wait for a  64 bit version :(
