Determining 64bit processes in Gnome

[Nullack]

Hi folks,

I have hardy x64 and I see the gnome process monitor does not indicate which processes are 32bit versus 64 bit native.

How do I easily tell which is which?

Thanks

Guessing here, but if you are running the 64bit version of Ubuntu, I believe all the processes are 64bit. With few exceptions (like proprietary binaries, eg. Acrobat Reader, Adobe Flash) the applications were all compiled in a 64bit environment using 64bit libraries.

64bit

Thanks - I think the firefox browser is compiled 32bit.

In Vista it shows whats 32 in the task manager.

Not overly important but I was curious - maybe the feature isnt in the gnome sys mon?

Just report this here (http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/). Maybe they'll include this in the next release :)

I think Quelx is correct. Unless you've got a 32 bit application installed then most will be 64 bit (yes even firefox will be 64 bit if it's from the repo's :))

Firefox comes installed with ubuntu. Did you by any case compile a newer version of FF?
