- Not only am I waiting for 64-bit drivers for my Radeon 9800 Pro, but I haven't even been able to get 2-D acceleration to work (which is supposed to be built-into XOrg, right?)
- Segmentation faults in several applications that I used to use, memory leaks in applications with supposed 64-bit support
- Chrooting --- I made one, ran a few trivial 32-bit binaries, but missing library errors were rampant with larger applications and many just refused to run
So anyway, I want to know how feasible it would be for me to retreat to my 32-bit world where my portage overlay isn't full of hacked ebuilds to include the amd64 keyword. If I were to do this, which considerations should I make?
- Would drivers for things such as my gigabit LAN device and video card work? (I have the Asus K8V Deluxe motherboard, by the way)
- Would the system actually work?
- Is there a non-destructive way to do this and keep everything in / ?
- Would such a transition actually improve my situation or would I be plagued with new incompatibility conundrums with even less documentation?
