What decision criteria should be applied to deciding to use a 64-bit
distribution version rather than a 32-bit version?
My systems (server/workstation and laptop) almost always have only a
single human user. Depending on the project the work could involve heavy
number crunching (spatial

PAE clean access.)

No. No.
Otherwise, either will suffice. I've had really good luck
I wrote this little script:
BEGIN { FS=| }
{if ($2 != 0.00)
print $1|$2|$3}
END {print NR}
to remove lines like this:
29608|0.00|0.00
from a file with 110K lines. While I thought it was working properly it
leaves these lines looking like this:
29608||

I don't know much about awk, so I won't be able to answer your question.
However, to simply remove whole lines, I would use grep:
grep -v '|0.00|' [filename]
Hope this is helpful.

Wes,
Exceptionally helpful. I discovered that my script does work, but

Fedor,
My AMD-based server/workstation has 2 cores and 4G RAM; my Intel-based
Dell laptop has 4 cores and 2G RAM. At least they're symetrical. :-)
Some applications are 32-bit only:

Daniel,
Yes. If the second column has zeros, so would the third column.
...if he wants to continue using awk, I believe the following will
work (the print NR was removed):

Russell,
I certainly respect your opinions, so I will take your advice when Pat
releases the next Slackware. I'm sure there will be some compatibility
issues with firefox, flash-player (gag!), and such, but

Use 64-bit if:
* You might have 4+ GB RAM at some point
* You are doing heavy number-crunching (check the

Same here. 64-bit server installations have been my default for three
or four years. Installing a 32-bit Linux on a dedicated server
requires a clear, uncontestable justification.

Fedora 14, How do I configure Pulseaudio to work?
I upgraded from Fedora 13 and I got my on board sound and not my sound
card. Then I rebooted and now don't even get that. Their website is
useless. Their wikis are even less.

Folks,
FWIW, with little fanfare, Scientific Linux 6.0 was released today.
Hasn't even shown up on my Linux newsfeeds yet. It's the rebuild of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, built from Red Hat source code.
Thanks,
Mike
