Thanks for the posting. I simply used the gdebi package installer to 
get mysql-server, and did not attempt to distinguish anything. I 
expected gdebi to grab the 32-bit version (if it exists), and give me a 
notice if it didn't. And I'm running 2.6.32-24-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP, 
if that helps. I do not, however know which library to which you refer 
in /usr/local/lib. If you could be specific on that, I'd be more than 
happy to try again. However, I'd have to figure out other dependencies 
as well, which I do not know.
Again, thanks. It has been a few years since I've worked in any Linux 
environment, and things have changed rather significantly in that time, 
so I was using the tools available.
