Is there a road map for 64 bit support on 810?

Last I heard from the devs, the time investment to provide 64 bit support isn't worth the benfits. So, probably not.

I think that thing is not yet existed...

That's too bad, since 32G is holds us below 4G memory. I have tried adding a couple features to linuxmce but I run out of memory. I was swapping 2G at one point when running some python code.

Being stuck on 32 bit is embarrassing and frustrating. Guess I'll recompile my kernel for hugemem.

I just have to ask...  what are you doing that swaps 2GB of RAM???  :-O  I can't fathom anything in this system requiring that much RAM for any task.

for my part, I'd like to be able to run 64-bit OS as I have a beast of a box (16Gb RAM, Quad-Core etc) which I would like to run MCE on alongside some virtualizing software (haven't decided which one).

I don't really want my core virtualized (although that is a possibility) but I could go that way too....

I ran sabnzbd and sickbeard, 2 python scripts. I can home yesterday to a 2G swap in use.

What I see now:

Hmm, donpaul I'm not sure I follow, the information you posted shows only 5MB of cache being used and 0.75GB of RAM still available...

Yeah, haha, I see the confusion. I moved my python scripts to a separate server and rebooted. I was only pointing out that it's fine when not running the other crap, and there is nothing out or normal running on the server.
