A couple of things need -fPIC setting in the CFLAGS, a52dec is the only one that springs to mind but I'm sure I've had that problem with some other things. You'll no it when you see it 'cos it will tell you to set -fPIC in the error message. > and if you need to watch > Flash videos (eg: Youtube, but they are gradually phasing out Flash > support by using VP8/WebM, a movement that I highly encourage, but > only nightly builds of Firefox/Chromium support it), unless you use > Gnash (which is still in beta state), you're screwed, since Adobe is > temporally stopping development of the 64-bit Flash plugin. > I find current Firefox to be very slow/laggy watching webm. The 64 bit flash still works better, sadly. Midori/webkit-gtk is much better. No lag there and it will play h264 videos. The only things I can't get working on 64 bit are precompiled things that don't have a 64 bit version available (Google Earth, I'm looking at you).
