And somehow I can't really see the advantage of a 64bit enabled mp3-player either .. or volume-control. Emacs perhaps? [(ducks)] With Gimp - having many huge layers in flight - I can see the advantage of 64bit. With most other applications though, it is not so clear. > - For a 64 bit desktop system please ensure the 32 bit libraries for > alsa, jack and pulseaudio are installed by default. > _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
