Gawd! Slade? I haven't thought about them in years. I prefer the Quiet Riot version of that song, though. ;)

Yep seems like we DID need a new challenge

 

PCLinuxOS x64 - just a couple of niggles right now - Thunderbird - DOES receive emails but can not find how to add my other email addresses P:LUS - it does NOT send

 

Evolution is just a fawn interface - no where to click and add any email of mine.

 

Thank heavens that OTHER Sytem outlook is working :whistling: :clap: :hug:

 

Cheers for years

Edit>Account Settings>Account Actions>Add Mail Account.

For sending, check the Server Settings to make sure you have the correct info in the top section.

Hello,

 

I think the main difference in using 32-bit (i386, i486, x86...) with PAE support over native 64-bit (amd64, x64, x86-64...) is that operations accessing memory addresses above the 4GiB limit are a lot faster; this may or may not show up, though, unless you're running native 64-bit code, or at least a 32-bit application that (1) recognizes PAE; and (2) wants to utilize more than 4GiB of memory.

 

As Eric noted, this does, in effect, make 64-bit twice as nice as 32-bit, however, for some memory or I/O intensive operations, it may be even nicer.

 

Regards,

 

Aryeh Goretsky
