Tell me about it. After finally getting mplayer installed (for future reference; add universe and multiverse to all entries in sources.list, not just the security ones <grin>) it seems that libfaad2-0 doesn't work correctly with AMD64 systems. All I want to do is convert some .m4a files :-(
Just try getting OpenOffice to print properly, currently I am printing to a file and then lpr'ing the file from the command line.
*BOGGLE* - use Abiword and Gnumeric, they're generally faster than OOo, too ;) (though I have also printed fine from OOo, however, I should state that I *do* run OOo from a 32bit chroot ;)
Maybe it's time to get that 32bit chroot working ;-)
Yes I am looking into that as well. I think from a end user perspective I liked the SuSE method of two library paths and a good selection of 32 bit libs on the 64bit version. Because that way 90% of the 32bit packages you may want to install just work out of the box. The Debian/ubuntu way is cleaner but gets very frustrating sometimes.
Debian is heading in that kinda direction soon, probably (look thought debian-devel for mentions of multiarch support).
The main panic point for me was when VMware wouldn't start, but fortunately that was just an incompatibility between 4.5 and the later 2.6 kernels. So the simple fix was to put my hand in my pocket and fork out for the 5.0 version of VMware (which I was planning on doing anyway)
Well, if you will use non-free software whaddya expect *grin*.
