Any workaround or do I just need to use adobe on WinXP?
Nobody should need to use windows.
Or, least best answer, acroread runs jes' fine on Linux.
except that they don't have an x86_64 version (unless it is fairly new) and I refuse to install i386 libraries to run acroread.
Slight digression, but I always forget to ask this:
Why are people so against installing 32-bit libraries? I've never understood this -- some people even opt for virtualization of a 32-bit release of their entire OS within which to run a few key 32-bit apps instead of just installing the 32-bit compatibility libraries.
What gives? Is there a technical argument against this?
I am against it because it adds clutter that I don't want ... also, if I ever need to build anything on a machine with multi-lib it is very hard to control what the auto config/compile tools do.
Then there are sometimes issues with the way RH does multi-lib ... the sharing of config and doc files. This sometimes causes issues.
But, the overriding reason is, if I wanted to run i686 stuff, I would have installed the i686 distro :)
