The reason to change to 64bit is maybe I'll have 8 GB instead of 4GB of
memory. PAE is already enabled in kernel, so I have no problem accessing
memory above 3Gbyte. Is there any performance increase can be expected if I
spend my time on this migration/reinstall?

Hi all
after upgrading KDE I cannot set the screen frequency. By default it is
set to 50 Hz, but it should be 54 Hz.
Every time I have to change it, but every time I start the PC the
frequency is always at 50 Hz.
This both as root and as user.
Any tip?
