With 64 bits as your desktop, there are some issues with flash and java web start. I probably should have stayed with the 32 bit stuff, but I went ahead and installed the 64 bit version and will stay with this. I have heard that the 64 bit linux does run some things better. I suppose you could recompile things to work in 64 bit mode, and still run 32 bit OS, at least for the utilites that benefit from it (and there are some that do.) I haven't sorted it all out yet. - Don > -gg (Hideki) > > Don Dailey: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > >On Thu, 2007-02-22 at 18:50 +0100, Sylvain Gelly wrote: > >> > I'm very much interested in core 2 duo performance and would > >> appreciate > >> > hearing what others have experienced in this regard.
