On the other hand I have not realy had any serios problem on the
application side (in Gentoo).  Took me a while to figure out how to
use 32-bit plugins in Firefox (nspluginwrapper turned out to be my
friend) but that's pretty much it.

On the hardware support side I have a number of issues, but I am not
sure how many would be resolved should I switch to 32 bit.  The issues
are: ati-drivers (no Powerplay, no DVI-I out, versions newer than
8.30.3 cause the system to reboot on wakeup), unreliable battery
reporting, somehow unreliable wakeup (followed by a kernel oops some
times).

Abybody seeing this in 32-bit land?
