i dont know where you can get flash player, but if you have an rpm, rpm -U file.rpm should install it.
same for upgrading firefox.

how well does your PS3 Linux run btw? can you play BIG games without problem?

Here's the download site, there is a link with instructions for rpm, tar.gz, or yum:

I doubt that you will be able to install it on a PS3, it is a PPC architecture. As far as I know, Adobe's Flash Player is only available for the x86 architecture.
