There is also a list JUST for 64-bit suse.
suse-amd64@suse.com
I have an amd64 machine and there ARE compatibilities with compiling source
meant for 32. I have been able to get around them mostly. SuSE provides
some nice scripts to setup the build environment for either one. With
binary's though, you shouldn't have any trouble. The system is setup where
if something doesn't know about 64bit, it will only see 32 (which can also
cause some trouble with installations after compiling something for 64).
