1 Hi folks on list. I don't know if I am the only one on the list having
2 dificult with gentoo amd64 stability. Most of the internet and graphic
3 world is beyond my command, like firefox and java ( always crash
4 firefox ) or flash player, or mplayer ......

6 I had 3 boxes running gentoo on a x86 platform without any problem,
7 but 64 platform it really frustated me, its fast but most programs are
8 masked. a lot of the programs I use won run unless you install a 32
9 bit binary ( so what the point of using gentoo .... )
10
11 sorry for the talking. Thanks for all that help that was giving.
12
13 An answer to end. It's worth to use gentoo x86 on a AMD64, or should I
14 run a binary distribution ?

16 Thanks again, Allan
