-----------------------------------

Thanks Mark

BTW, I was able to make my own 64 bit build and get it running (with visual faces-config editor working and everything)  by following these steps:

(Thanks in part to this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=542056)

1. Download the 64 bit version of Eclipse 3.3. I downloaded it from http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/d...-200706251500/

2. Install RHDS using the installer workaround mentioned above, but be sure to specify 386 and not 368

3. Extract Eclipse 3.3 somewhere else

4. Copy the eclipse executable from Eclipse 3.3 to the RHDS/eclipse folder

5. Copy all the stuff under Eclipse 3.3 "plugins" to the RHDS/eclipse/plugins folder

6. Edit the RHDS/eclipse/eclipse.ini file and change this:

        /home/ngriffin/Tools/jdk1.5.0_14/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so

   To this:

        /home/ngriffin/Tools/jdk1.5.0_14/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so

> When picking the JVM, the installer shows a "The chosen directory does not contain a Java VM"-message, when picking a 64-bit jdk.
> It checks for "selected-path/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so" to verify the path but it is "selected-path/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so" for a 64-bit jdk.
