What is your Firefox browser?

I have Firfox 3.05b.

It is a berta version bundled with the open SUSE 11.0 software.

When I tried to get sound from an online dictionary, I get the following message.

--------------------------
No suitable plugins found.
Unknown plugin (application/x-shockwave-flash)

I downloaded a .rpm file from the following website. The error message directed me to this website.
It was automatic installation.
It did not work.

As the auto install didn't work, I did the manual installation.
I got the following message.
linux-j5q7:/home/ni/Desktop # rpm -Uvh 'flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-release.i386.rpm'Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-release is already installed

I tried to get a pronounciation of a word from the above dictionary.
No sound at all.

What is the problem?
I think Adobe does not make one for 64bit platform.

The sound card works because I hear sound at the starting up procedure of the computer.[/COLOR]
