Hi Martin,

We've been running 32bit on 64bit for over a year now. From my
experience running
32bit apps on a 64bit linux is as stable as on 32bit. You just need to
ensure you
install everything correctly. Plus there's a couple of approaches. I'd
try the emul
libraries one first. It's likely your nvidia driver will install 32bit
drivers as well as
I believe this is standard for the nvidia packages.

You'll just need to modify you're .xsi_6.5 a little - mainly to add
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib32
Put it just after the unset for loop.

Cheers,

Alan.
