No I meant a 64bit version of OpenSolaris. Right now it's only available in 64bit for SPARC if I'm not mistaken.
A 64-bit kernel will be loaded when you boot OpenSolaris on x86 systems if your system supports it.
Although, not all applications are 64-bit, and this is intentional. My understanding is that this is either for compatibility reasons or because the 64-bit version would provide no benefit (just use more memory, etc.).
Almost all libraries are available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Cheers, -- Shawn Walker _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
