All (well, very nearly all) the software I need is available in 64-bit=20 versions, partially because I disdain proprietary software, so running=20 64-bit gives better performance with little cost. > Is it smart to hope "Gentoo AMD64 FAQ" will=20 > be thiner and thiner during upcoming months? :-) Yes, it will. There will be fewer and fewer issues as 64-bit operation=20 becomes the norm. My current advice is to read the FAQ and if anything mentioned is an issue= =20 for you, go with 32-bit. You lose some, but also gain some ease of use. =2D-=20 "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." =2D- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh --nextPart1903597.FhvreT8Egs Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBFiGnmq72nDbhDXToRAu1dAJwLt9ZvEECN1ThYZm4v1dL33rQS1gCfdW71 VFcBgXImjQr18/J4xFTgMGs= =xX7w -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1903597.FhvreT8Egs-- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
