Linux 32 / 64 bit support
As our department is phasing out 32 bit machines, it's becoming increasingly difficult for us to support a 32-bit Linux build. It would be most convenient for us to to discontinue support of 32 bit Linux and switch to 64 bit Linux (other platforms would be unaffected). So I wanted to ask the Foldit Linux users, what would they think of that change? Should be continue supporting 32 bit Linux instead of 64 bit? Are most of you using 32 bit or 64 bit machines?

Just checked: the default download for Ubuntu 11.10 desktop is still 32-bit.
I also don't use 32 bit.
switch please
I would think most people running Foldit on Linux are using 64 bit hardware and OS. There should have been a 64 bit client available for a while now.
I mostly use windows, but during the weeks that I switch over to linux it's 64 bit
Thanks for the replies, sounds like 64 bit is the way to go.
not for me 32bit is all I have.

There will be some advantage to make win64 version?
And my linux is 64bit :)
