Hello,
Thank you for your fast answer.
After installing the amd64 build, I get "no such file or directory"
message while "file /usr/bin/asfxload" shows a
"ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked
(uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, stripped"
Nothing appears in /var/log/syslog
