Hello a work collegue has a 64 bit machine and tried running (live

I tried at my work PC downloaded the 64bit version and used the web
guide to install it on a USB. Seemed to work fine but when I clicked
on "try ubuntu" busybox code came by and said the following:

cannot mount /dev/loop1 on /cow
(initramfs)

I'm now downloading the LTS 64 bit to see how that goes,
but in the mean time if he wants to do, for example, some video
editing at home would openshot, pititvi, ... take the advantage of the
64bit machine? or would it act as if it's a 32bit? If so it might be
worth just to install ubuntu32bit.

Hi, I am running 10.10 on 64bit machine, and it seems to run ok. I cannot upgrade to 11.04 though, backlight problem ? something else which doesnt seem to have been fixed. Funny thing though, this machine, is Acer Aspire laptop, that 11.04 wont work on, but I have a netbook Acer Aspire One, that 11.04 does work on and that is 32bit. /I cant work that one out. :(
