-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Why not just install the 32bit version of Ubuntu and leave it at that. I have an Athalon 64 bit system recognised by Ubuntu as such but due to the unavailability of 64 bit Flash etc. I wiped the 64bit system and installed 32bit. It runs much faster and works well.
