     1= 64bit Issues =
     2
     3Problems installing 64bit (x86_64) as a desktop.  Problems arise when you install 64bit but need to install 32bit applications as well. 
     4
     5Known workarounds for specific applications
     6
     7== Adobe Reader (acrobat) ==
     8
     9 * sssd-client.i686 - required for getuid to work
     10
     11The sssd dependency is the only dependency that isn't straight forward to find.  To find the rest load LD_LIBRARY_PATH with the path to the Adobe libraries, then ldd acroread and look for not found
     12{{{
     13LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/lib ldd /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread |grep "not found"
     14}}}
     15
     16Then install the packages that provide the missing libraries by looking for the lib64 versions of the libraries.  For instance if libpng.so.12 was not found:
     17{{{
     18        libpng12.so.0 => not found
     19root@client[1047]: rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0
     20libpng-1.2.44-1.el6.x86_64
     21root@client[1048]: yum install libpng.i686
     22root@client[1049]: ldd /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread |grep libpng
     23        libpng12.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 (0x002c5000)
     24
     25When you've finished installing all the dependencies using this method, you should not have any not found libraries returned from the ldd above.

     27== Flash-plugin ==
     28
     29The 64bit version of flash-plugin is currently unsupported by adobe, it's available on labs.adobe.com at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
