Hi,
After falling back to a 32-bit install, I renewed the attempt to
work on a 64-bit distribution.
Processor AMD Sempron
System:
uname -a
Linux mavram 2.6.18-4-amd64 #1 SMP Fri May 4 00:37:33 UTC 2007 x86_64
GNU/Linux

1-Does anyone know how to get C as the default locale (I got it
by inserting export LANG=C in my .bashrc, but there is, probabaly
a better way) ?


# sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

the second screen lets you define default locale

2-Which packages are requested in order to configure printing
(Printer Epson Stylus Color 670) ? It works allright on my old
32-bit distribution, but I was not able to obtain meaningful
output in the present one, although the ps files look perfecly
normal in gv.


How about looking at "dpkg --get-selections" from the old config and try to
apply the relevant parts on the new one?

I'm not sure how much are you familiar with Debian package tools but
"apt-cache search", "apt-file search" and "aptitude" are very good friends
to have around when digging the debian package repository.

Other than that, your best bet might be to google around about "debian epson
stylus".
