Major Problems

  • amd64 installation on Core 2 Duo seems slow. It *is* fast, but one would expect better performance from such a configuration. This seems to be a RAM problem more than anything else; ATA drivers also maybe.

Normal Problems

  • A 64-bit client JVM is not available. Maybe it will be included in Java 1.7 but it's unlikely and anyway it's still far away.
  • TexLive (2007 and later) support in Gentoo would be very nice.
  • Monitor cannot go on suspend mode with amd64 + nvidia drivers. Fix seems to be in Xorg 7.2.
