Ok, the short answer is "yes". A slightly longer answer is "yes, unless it requires shared objects not available as 64-bit builds, and unless your app is 'really smart' and decides for itself whether it will work on this platform or not". > Since you mentioned firefox, is there an 64-bit adobe flash plug-in available > for firefox x86_64?

Short answers are "no", and "you use the 32-bit firefox or you don't get to use the plugins which are not available as 64-bit objects". -- Stephan Wiesand DESY - DV - Platanenallee 6 15738 Zeuthen, Germany
