I tried getting a 64bit compile going on Kubuntu 8.04, but after about 3 weeks of trying I gave up. I installed a VM of 32bit Kubuntu 8.04 and just do 32bit builds.
I get lots of crashed relating to streaming media and will be trying to troubleshoot these crashes. I can't even get voice to work at all. I think that getting a full 64bit build would be a good thing, but it's going to take a bit of work to get it stable (I think). Russell G.
