A couple of weeks ago TerraSoft released preliminary 64-bit ISO's of their flagship product, Yellow Dog Linux 3.0.1 (YDL), especially for owners of Apple's new G5 machines. I was pining for a chance to get an open source OS running in 64-bit mode so I quickly downloaded the three ISO's.

Honestly, I thought Linux will be at the forefront of adopting 64-bit computing. I was told it was as simple as recompiling all your apps with 64 bit flags via GCC and voila. But from what I've observed, it's nothing as smooth as running 32-bit Linux. What exactly is the problem? The inavailability of 64-bit drivers?
