Hi people,

I'm new on FreeBSD, but used to run linux for a lot of years.
My hardware is : Nvidia 7300GS and Amd64 ...
The usage is : Desktop + Dev with some classical services : FTP /
Samba / SSH / Apache / MySQL and of course eclipse (wtp, pdt, cdt,
etc.) and dev tools.

I read there is no nvidia driver for 64 bits install, but there is
some in 32 bits install.

Is there any issues to be aware of before installing 32 bits version
on Amd64? (Compatibilty? Reliability? Performance?)

thanks by advance for any help
