| Question 64 or 32 bit LL 2.2 Opinions welcomed |

Have a 2007 ultra slim desktop HP Compaq dc7700 which currently has 3 x 1 GB Ram fitted running on 32 bit LL2.0
RAM usually only 10% occupied. Bios previously updated 2011 version.
System apparently has 64 bit capability so out of interest ran live LL2.2 from USB and all appears to be working OK.
Question therefore:-
What would be the advantage of running 64 bit instead of 32 bit given that existing RAM is only 3GB and barely occupied. To fully utilise the 64 bit capability the dc7700 will accept 3 x 2gb RAM modules. Not a cheap upgrade £65.00 or so
Bearing in mind the desktop PC is being used for "normal" office use NOT CAD, Intense Graphics ( photo editing) or gaming. is there any point in changing from 32bit to the 64 bit option; with or without RAM upgrade? Thanks

Please add btrfs-tools to the iso. I encountered an error while installing LL 2.2 with btrfs format selected. Installing the tools package fixed it.

Hi,
This may come in useful if you just need to quickly connect to another PC to say check some files or config.
First install package on the "Remote PC(s)" the one(s) you will "Connect TO"
Code: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
lots of output
[ snip ]
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
.
.
0 to upgrade, 5 to newly install, 0 to remove and 83 not to upgrade.
Need to get 445 kB of archives.
After this operation, 1,571 kB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? Y
.
.
$
Then to test it locally, still at the terminal prompt
Code: ssh <yourusername>@localhost
The authenticity of host 'localhost (127.0.0.1)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is e5:da:66:ed:64:9d:d2:bc:db:18:ca:92:10:46:d1:8c.
Then a question.?
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'localhost' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

| [SOLVED] Firefox 32.0.3 Flash Plugin Vulnerability |

HI
I'm running LL 2.0 32 bit, which has Firefox 32.0.3 installed. However, it is now out of date and I'm getting warnings about the Flash Plugin being vulnerable and should be updated. Mozilla recommend installation through the repository updates but as these don't seem forthcoming, I'm wondering if it would be wise to update to Firefox 34.0.5 manually and also update the Flash Plugin manually.
I would be happy to read any views on this as Firefox is my prefered browser (Chrome's so sluggish these days).
Regards
dby :-\
