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?
In short, if you are going to upgrade despite the cautions, then Yes,
Right now my x86_64 install is behaving much better than the i586 install I have. Can't explain it, but it is. I am beginning to suspect a broken ATI driver on the i586 install.
I tried 64 for one day now. everything looks good and i can get almost all the programs i need to run. 2 notes : Skype doesnt has 64 version, so i need to install some 32bit lib. And i can't get GnoMenu to work until now, dont know why. It worked fine on 32 bit version. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
