Recently I've begun considering migrating over to the amd64 platform (my
motherboard just died on my athlon xp system, much to my chagrin) and
figure this is a good place to ask for users experiences. I'm not worried
about my video card drivers, since NVIDIA has great amd64 support, at
least, so I'm told. My main concern is that I need to install some 32-bit
emulation libraries and kernel modules, so I've read, to compile 32-bit
apps, and that some compiled 32-bit apps will only work under a 32-bit
environment, requiring me to setup a seperate environment to chroot into.
I'm running gentoo and I'm up to the task, just wondering if anyone has
any experience in this specifically and anything I should be concerned
about or not to worry too much about. Thanks.
