Is fedora a full 64 bit OS yet? Will it run 64 bit on an amd 64 bit
system?
I'm running a triple-boot system with WinXP64, Fedora Core 4 i386 (32-bit),
and FC4 x86_64 (64-bit). The last is mostly for playing with 64-bits when
building apps, which as a rule want to be built "native". The 64-bit build
will run 32-bit apps, but it's harder to build them there.
At this point I'd say Linux's 64-bit driver support is at least as good as
that of XP64. Only recently did nVidia and Logitech come out with 64-bit
drivers, and I can't use my Windows DVD software on that OS. (I have to run
it on my old 32-bit box.)
