| At this time those with a 64 bit processor have the option of installing the 64 bit version of Ubuntu. Not all software is available in the 64 bit environment. In particular non-free items are usually 32 bit. For example the Flash plugin is a 32 bit program. Some programs can be run in the 64 bit version of Ubuntu by using the 32 bit libraries. You can use ["sudo"] and apt-get to install these libraries. sudo apt-get install ia32-libs* One can also use the synaptic package manager to install the 32 bit libraries. Another option is to create a 32 bit environment with ["chroot"]. See ["32 bit chroot"] |
