Ah, 64-bit desktop. OK, all bets are off then. I'd advise going back to
the official suse 2.0 release of firefox.  I've sworn off 64-bit desktop
for now, since I want all the gaming and multimedia stuff to be 100%.
Maybe in a couple years I'll try it again, but for me the pain isn't
worth the gain.

I use 64-bit linux on big servers that are running plain vanilla
services, but that's about it. I even  threw in the towel and finally
converted my mail server from 10.2/64 -> 10.3/32 and the improvement has
been dramatic, since the machine was nowhere near big enough to gain any
benefit from the 64-bit OS. In addition, 3rd party software I'm using
seems to have a lot of problems in their 64-bit versions, but the 32-bit
versions  works perfectly.
