I tried installing Gears tonight, agreed to the EULA and then clicked
the "install" button.. the progress bars runs to the end (looks like
it downloads) but then this message pops up

"Google Gears" could not be installed because it is not compatible
with your Firefox build type (Linux_x86_64-gcc3). Please contact the
author of this item about the problem."

I checked the archives and found a number of related threads but they
were from back in may of 2008... someone at google must being using
64bit ubuntu ?!

Here's my uname

Linux deadman 2.6.27-7-generic #1 SMP Tue Nov 4 19:33:06 UTC 2008
x86_64 GNU/Linux
