if you are getting annoyed with 64bit 32bit problems simply reinstall ubuntu 32bit (i did it - as long as you do not use extensive amounts of memory > 4gb you will not see any difference imho). raphael (btw... the issue with flash is not running is related to the same problem field - check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#amd64andppc) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
