Well fedora gives you Firefox for a Webbrowser but what about Flash ??

dnf install Chromium

John VV, thanks for your help, I installed Chromium , but I can not Stream video on two sites yahoo.com and foxnews.com.

Using my PC I can stream video on these two sites using Chrome.

I'm going to try and find a chrome-fc25-i386 on the web

fwiw, I install chrome on fedora 25 from the google repos. Just took a look, it seems their repo only offers a 64bit version of google-chrome-stable. Found a year-old blog post saying Google is killing 32bit Chrome for linux.

I installed Chromium but it won't Stream Video, so I Installed Fedy and in the Utilities Section I found Flash that allowed the 32 bit Firefox to Stream video.

Well !! until this Flash doesn't work again .

you will be waiting a VERY long time

flash is finally on it's way out

and WHY!!!! the 32 bit????

if this is a antique 32 bit CPU then use a legacy hardware OS like centos6.8

I have two Asus 10" laptops that still have a lot of use, I left Windows 20 years ago because of Microsoft causing changes every year and causing me to spend more money to makes Bill Gates the riches man in the world.

And now Linux is putting me in the same position. I should have not said that, At least Fedora is still giving me a 32 bit OS and I do appreciate that.

Yes I do have 64 bit PC.

If that is your goal, then you goofed by selecting Fedora as your distribution of choice. Fedora is intentionally "unstable" (in the techie meaning of the word) and undergoes massive changes every 6 months, by design. John VV is correct (as usual) that CentOS would have been a better choice for your needs, or perhaps the "LTS" (long term support) release of Ubuntu or Mint.
