hi... i hv Core 2 Duo processor and 2 GB memory on my notebook and i m going to have a fresh install for opensuse 11.1. From opensuse website, it says for my spec, I should go with 64 bit version. What is the plus minus of 32 bit and 64 bit?? Should I go with 64 bit?? Could 64 bit runs Compiz?
Main advantage of 64-bit is the possibility of adressing more than 2 GB of memory, so that won't help you. But you'll still get a small performance boost, so I would go with 64-bit any day of the week on your 64-bit hardware. -- Mads Martin Joergensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogical, with just a little bit more effort?" -- A.
