I tested the Debian 64 bit GCC 4.5 version yesterday and it worked well.

One error though in Ubuntu 11.10 is the perl pgplot library bindings. It comes up with an error regarding XDisplay. To fix that you can just recompile libpgplot-perl like this:

        https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpgplot-perl/+bug/932259

There is 2 sets of instructions in that ticket, but there are two other options. Using the rebuild (B) option, you can then just type "sudo cpan PGPLOT"
OR you can rebuild the Ubuntu package using

        sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot dpkg-dev
        sudo apt-get source libpgplot-perl
        sudo apt-get build-dep libpgplot-perl
                (make sure you own the files in libpgplot-perl to help build)
        cd libpgplot-perl
        dpkg-source -x libpgplot-perl*.dsc
        dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b
        cd ..
        dpkg -i libpgplot*.deb

Or something like that.

Scott
