That's good.

Yes, that's the issue with linux compatibility on amd64..
It seems like you'll be using computer as desktop, so I would suggest that you 
switch to 32bit mode - it will be still (almost) as fast as in 64bit - and 
install i386 distribution. That way you will have much less issues with 
emulation/multimedia.

I'm using my amd64 server solely as dedicated SQL server, so 64bit mode is not 
issue for me, but only a gain in speed.
