Hi Gang,

I am trying to get a Pulsar ADSL card to operate on Gentoo with 2.6 Kernel, though the card is in a 32bit slot on the motherboard.

The card works perfectly with exact same kernel build on a 32Bit machine. and I have been told that I should downgrade my kernel to 32Bit which i find rather painful as I have spent so much money on the 64Bit hardware for the project that not using the system to full potential is rather hard to swallow.

The card is as follows:

Is there anything I can do to possibly make my kernel backwards compatible for 32bit code while running 64Bit code at full speed.

Regards

Charles.
