There's nothing wrong with 64-bit and I'd hasten to add that if you have a capable processor in a desktop or server, you'd be nuts not to take advantage of it with applications that're able - there are big performance gains to be had. It's really very simple, if you want to *ever* run a 32-bit application, you install with a multilib profile. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
