I saw a couple posts that 10.3 was working good with 64-bit, so I decided to install that way. This is my first glitch, but this is my office desktop. I don't need multi-media, so I'll stick with what I have. Too much hassle to switch to 32-bit, and so far the speed of FF3B2 far outweighs the lack youtube, etc. Since this is a beta merely hosted in the build service, should I file a Novell Bugzilla against it?
