Aimed at adding X to my amd64 etch workstation, I wonder whether X is treated in amd64 (no 32 chroot, pure 64 as far as it may be pur) like in i386.
In a new installation of i386 etch netinstall with latest etch RC1, no nvidia driver was installed. I took notice of what was installed for X, though I would like to be directed to where learning in detail how X is managed this way. Specific to i386, while the machine has an Athlon k7 cpu, linux-image-2.6.17-2-486 (2.6.17-9) linux-image-2.6-486 (2.617+2) were installed instead of the avilable k7 equivalents. Should I better reoplace them with the latter ones? GNOME was installed (without asking for a choice, which turned out to be favorable because now I have nice printing, although I dislike automatic mounting of devices). With KDE I had recently unresolved unacceptance of root password, while I never succeeded to print from KDE; I had to print from applications, such as openoffice or al.) Thanks for answering before I go to install X on the amd64 machine, which I have to treat with special care. cheers francesco pietra ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
