thanx, i'm aware of this. no, i didn't put any 32bit libs on this 
machine until it is really essential. the only thing that does not 
work at all is flashplugin from macromedia, that is only 32bit for 
linux available. everything else is natively running 64bit. chimera 
as well is running fine from what i use/can see now. great work to 
you!

ok, i see. unfortunately this is a laptop, so no option to change 
this. thanx for information

great. thanx for this explaination. 

best regards,
