I was referring to SUSE, my bad.

Ubuntu has 64bit Firefox, all the applications are 64bit.
SUSE 64bit contains 32bit apps, off the top of my head Firefox and Open Office are both 32bit.
I tried Gnash but I didn't get any sound.

Strange thing with Ubuntu Gutsy, for the first time I can access all 4GB of memory on my system, previously could only access 3.3GB, but, memory usage is now showing over 1GB which works out at using more than the additional 0.7GB than previously, so I seem to have less memory available for apps now, weird.
