hail, I'd like to run folding at home on FreeBSD (my OS of choice) and I have this problem of needing to run a amd64 binary. all I saw when emulating on freebsd was a 32 bits linux enviroment, and all I found about amd64 enviroment for amd64 linux emu on freebsd was a mail from a mailing list from 2004. if there is any news on this, where could I find ? is there ? thanks in advance, matheus -- We will call you cygnus, The God of balance you shall be
