Leon, beautiful site. Thanks for taking the time and effort to put this together. Might just give 64 bit another try after digesting all you've done.

Hello,

Let me start by saying this guide is really cool. The last time I tried 64bit was a huge pain so I went back to 32bit. Keep in mind this was using Suse 9.3 at the time and it came on the DVD so why not :)

Anyway I just thought I would mention there is some stuff on there that could really need attention. What about w32codecs? How about Realplayer? (I Personally hate it:) I personally use my box for regular computer stuff and watching Anime and listening to music. So in order for me to be successful in using 32bit I need to have a codec for just about every media format that linux can use.

I know that VLC can play some media formats without additional codecs needed but some it cannot and the same for Mplayer if I am correct. Oh yeah and I agree Amarok is where it's at!

This is just a couple of suggestions for the site that I personally would love to see added.

Thanks again and good luck!

W32codecs install the same in 64 and 32bit:
