I saw a couple posts that 10.3 was working good with 64-bit, so I
decided to install that way.  This is my first glitch, but this is my
office desktop.  I don't need multi-media, so I'll stick with what I
have.  Too much hassle to switch to 32-bit, and so far the speed of
FF3B2 far outweighs the lack youtube, etc.

Since this is a beta merely hosted in the build service, should I file
a Novell Bugzilla against it?
