Comment Re:What about 64 bit. (Score 1) 111
Everything on my Ubuntu installation is 64 bit. Every single application. Since I'm using Chromium, I guess that I have V8 in 64 bit. Just add the Chromium repository to Apt, then apt-get the source. You don't even have to know how to compile. (I do know how to, sort of, but I'm certainly not proficient - just let your installer do the work!)
I suspect it's using ia32-libs and not actually 64 bit. I have two reasons for suspecting this.
1) Chrome does not support 64 bit builds
2) The Ubuntu Chrome Daily PPA page says "no native 64bit debs planed for now. The amd64 package is using ia32-libs."
Yep, like i said, it's a shame, The idea is that we would use it in our project which is a telephony server that runs much better on 64bit, that's really the only show stopper from our being able to try it instead of the spidermonkey library we use now.
