Adobe doesn't seem to have acroread for x86_64 linux, or at least I
don't
see it anywhere.
Anybody know otherwise?
Evince and other tools work pretty well, but I have always liked having
the "real thing" around for those occasions when they don't.

It's not 64 bit, but it will work and that is all you can get from them at the moment. Xpdf works well enough for me that I don't need another tool.

Same with pdf links on web pages, just clicks and the browser loads the pdf in its internal reader. Hope this helps.
