I haven't checked java and/or eclipse, but for the two others: You can't compile realplayer from source, simply because it's closed source. The realplayer-based helix (?) player should be working, but it does not contain the realmedia codecs. OpenOffice does not currently compile for amd64 - and even if it did, you really wouldn't want to... it's HUGE. amd64 support is planned for OpenOffice 2.0, so you'll have to wait for that if you want a native build. Ok, so you can't run those two in a pure 64bit environment. However it's not a big deal to get them running in a 32bit chroot (ok, I haven't checked realplayer, but openoffice is running fine). Check the pure64 FAQ for more information. -- Sebastian Steinlechner
