FO: Windows Vista Home 64-bit (OEM)
NET team members) if there would be support for native I-64 instructions in .NET as in, would it generate 64 bit code for the processor...this generated a lot Also, there are issues with developers - assume I have a PIII and my code runs fine on my machine, but it hangs on someone else's Athlon or PII - I can't

Lost the Passion
However, once a 64-bit userland is running, I don't see how that will sap people's time to any great extent. Right now, it's sapping *my* time, but I wasn't going to work on multiarch anyway. Heck, I wasn't going to *any* AMD64 work until I get my machine next week. -- John If you start its easier to jump on the

The OEM key being sold here will work on both 32bit and 64bit basic versions of Vista so just becuase your buying the 64bit media doesn't mean your tied to that. I`d say its worth at least 40 including delivery Vista runs every bit as well as XP on my machine and is better for its updates. Yer but you're French.

ATI Mach 64 video card in a 7500?
In Ascii, it contains: "abcdefgh" In hex, the file contains: 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 The file is then read into memory on my machine (2 different ways) and on a hypothetical big-endian 64-bit machine. Each system does an operation on the data then writes the data to a binary file. Will all three files contain the

Fortran under Linux vs NT Comparison
Iiuc, I will be unable to install WSS 3.0 on this server while IIS is running in 32-bit mode. Is there a workaround that might allow me to proceed? And is there any reason NOT to host it on a 64-bit box (assuming that's even possible in my environment)? If you have another machine available to run WSS3,

PCI based Graphics Cards?
Linux seems to run well on today's 32 bit microprocessors, but will there be an upward evolution of Linux to accommodate the 64 bit architecture that Intel of thought they make up for in the ability to adopt and improve what proves to work. My opinion is that MS will spend whatever it takes, hiring(stealing?

Concerns about AMD64 port

Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000
All I do is look at the size of dma_addr_t to decide whether to enable high address support in my driver. If dma_addr_t's size changes, then 64bit addressing will work the same as on every other Linux port. It is totally different. The ia64 method, while it worked for ia64, could not work properly on just about any

HP says 2GB RAM maximum; will 4GB work??
... that there is a problem with the 64 bit drivers for OS/2 that will cause OS/2 to crash when exiting from a WIN-OS2 session after performing any intensive graphic work in WINOS/2 ie. My machine's screen when returning to the the OS/2 desktop blanks out ...so does mine, my machine is switching resolutions.

Processing workload distribution
It seems a bit silly that we have this bitfield, and then subdivide the bitfield for the swap entries. Having a union of bitfields is allowed, but having a union in a struct of bitfields or vice-versa will probably cause the compiler not to put all of this together in a single 64 bit entity.

DAC960, 2.4.19 alpha problems
Yes, there will be one more if() in copy_thread, but so what? In theory it could be removed from the system call table for 64bit but there didn't seem a good reason to do so If you don't want to do the work help me to get 2.5 running on my machine and I'll come up with a patch. - -- - --------------. ,-.

How to achieve actual use of my full 4 GB RAM,
From what I understand, *many* of the clone machines *don't* meet Intel's specifications for cooling however, so don't count on them to work. I already dealt with this in my follow-up. The upgrade chip won't have a 64-bit memory address. If I can upgrade my machine to a Pentium and get roughly double the

Microsoft throws in the towel on Vista

I can't say for certain, again, because I can't upgrade my machine to 3.3.
