Chrome/chromium is the only Linux browser that has support for the latest version of Flash. Due to limited LinHES dev resources Chrome is the browser that will be packaged. Please feel free to create a Wiki entry at Misc_tips_and_other_neat_things with these instructions for those that want to use Firefox on LinHES.
