XtalView/Xfit runs just fine on 64-bit. The problem is that both Fedora and Suse 10.3 currently ship with a broken xorg library. This is a known problem (Google for details), but I do not know if there is a fixed version available for download. This particular xorg build error is not present in Mandriva's rpm for the same set of libraries; I can run Xfit just fine on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems with it. In principle one could perhaps re-install xorg from the Mandriva 2008 rpms to replace the one is Suse 10.3, or replace just the one library by hand, but I would hesitate to take that route unless I was willing to reinstall from scratch if it failed. -- Ethan A Merritt
