From what I read throughout the Internet is 64bits is not mature and stable (for the desktop) as 32bits. Also from what I've heard, unless you are pushing the machine hard, you shouldn't perceive much difference in performance between 32 and 64 bits, in day-to-day work. With this edition, I had some glitches (especially when I was trying some heavy desktop effects) but with the lastest updates I feel it rock solid even when running Ubuntu Server JeOS under VMWare Server... Pascal. Hi,

My question is about processor. It is well known that core 2 duo is 64 bit architecture. So what distribution are you using: amd64 or 386. I've tried to install amd64 but I've met some problems like instability of ntfs-3g driver end X-server with evdev enabled. I wonder if the problems are due to bad support of core 2 duo in amd64 edition of Ubuntu. What do you think about it? Thank you in advance :-)) I’ve got latptop that is very similar to yours.
