Hello Andy,

I am running ardour on a very similar setup (AMD X2 4200+ on MS K8N board).
My kernel is 2.6.13-smp (with low-latency patch) and both of my cpu-cores 
are beeing used. (The performance gain from switching to smp was much more 
noticable to me in "normal" day-to day work than the performance gain from 
switching to a 64bit version of linux, btw.)

I can't say much to planetccrma, as I am using "64Studio", a pure 64bit
debian distribution based on Agnula/DeMuDi, see http://64studio.com/

Some weeks ago, there was no debian package for Ardour 0.99, so I built
it myself from sources. I noticed no 64bit related issues whatsoever.

hope that helps,
Hermann
