Strange. I thought 32 bit programs would run on 64 bit OS's, just not as well
as 64 bit versions. So it is with my wife's Windows 7. Haven't thought about
linux, which I believe I always ran as 32 bit, or OSX, which I believe I'm
running as a 64 bit OS.
Running 32 bit apps in a 64 bit Linux will only work if the various
things the app depends on are either also 32 bit or have 32 bit
compatibility libraries. You cannot simply fire up a 64 bit parent
application and expect 32 bit sub components to "just work".
There is a 64 bit version of Lightning (Linux) available here:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/releases/lightning1.0b1.html#linux-x86-64-builds
which is the current release.

Thanks for the link. I used the default links with Mozilla and got only
the 32-bit version.
Some of the 32-bit will work on 64-bit IF you have the 32-bit libraries
installed, while
other see the 64-bit and will bot look any father to see if there is the
proper libraries there.
