Going back to 32 bit from 64 bit



 Sadly, I moved back to 32 bit kubuntu. 

On 64 bit systems everything works fine as long as it is 64 bit or 
self-contained 32 bit, but not all firefox plugins are 64 bit as of yet, 
so you have to run the 32 bit version, but that doesn't work because 
things like sound are implemented at the 64 bit level and the shared 
libraries don't load. 

PostgreSQL compiled on a 64 bit machine will not read a database built 
using a 32 bit build. 

Wine does not seem to work at all. 

Oh well, maybe next year.
