So your choices are: Go all 32-bit with the application, which is possible, while still in a 64-bit OS; and it may even be possible to install both 32- and 64-bit versions of a particular application. Or, go *all* 64-bit; use the 64-bit version, find 64-bit plugins for it. The latter may be a bit hard when dealing with Windows files, as that platform is lagging behind in using 64-bit. Though, that shouldn't be an issue with OGM, as that's hardly a Windows thing. I wonder if you've tried using totem to play it? -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
