Man page via(4):
"The driver is not fully 64 bit clean. In particular, 3D acceleration,
XvMC and VBEModes do not work properly in 64-bit mode."
Obviously, I'd like things to work in 64-bit mode!
I have no idea how easy or difficult it would be to rebuild this package
from source. If it is doable, I might try debugging it myself.
Regards,
Myxie.
