I know what you mean. I recently bumped my machine up to 12 GB and
it's already full.

I'm using etch. I did find one HOWTO on 64-bit Debian that had the
quick way and the slow way. The quick way failed to handle flash.
Until the slow way becomes a quick way, it's a non-starter.

Fortunately, I'd only need flash if I were goofing off, and everything
else we use is 64-bit, so I get along fine. I'm using the
sun-java6-jdk package from non-free and it works fine with the Java
apps that I use: Eclipse, Squirrel, iReport, MATLAB, etc. Not to
mention compile and run the Kepler apps we're developing at NASA.
(Fortunately, these are all written in Java. :-)

If I'm hearing folks correctly, is 32-bit flash running out of the box
on 64-bit lenny now? If it's not running out of the box, could someone
please post a link to a HOWTO? Thanks!
