All libraries in lib64 directories are 64-bit, and the ones in lib are 32-bit (well at least in most cases, kernel modules are in a subdir of lib...). I assume you downloaded the binaries and not the source. I have attempted to compile blender to make it 64-bit, but it wasn't easy. I had to hack up the make files because it wasn't looking in the right place for 64-bit X libraries. Since you don't have an internet connection, I suggest you use the package selection GUI and look for "compat" or "32-bit" libraries and install those. I don't remember off hand how to install the 32-bit libs (if they are included on the CDs/DVD) and I'm not in Linux at the moment. I remember I downloaded and compiled something like that, but I don't remember if that was needed to run it, or for compiling (I think compiling). Jonathan
