Hiho,

with the motherboard of my gaming machine in the shed being ruined in a  
rather embarassing fashion, I now have a new Mobo (a rather weird 754/939  
either/or combo thingie) and just today had a new Processor delivered  
(Athlon 64).

Can I just ask the collective hive brain of this mailinglist whether any  
of you had any problems with the 64-bit distros out there? I know that  
there is a Firefox/Flash issue that has been around, but apart from that,  
any problems???

...or would the recommendation be to stick with a 32 bit Distro?

Cheers,


D
