So, do we have to pay the Powerpack in order to have Mandriva 2010 in 64bits?

No, I just installed Mandriva Free and added the extra repositories from http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/ . For some reason Adobe's Flash didn't wish to work, but there's always Gnash so it's not such a horrible issue.

I order to use the 64-bit Adobe flashplayer, you still need download it manually from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html

Then, put the 'libflashplayer.so' into /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/ if you want it to be available system wide.
