New to the forum, but not to GIMPS (4+ years now).

My 2nd PC (C2D E6420, Intel DP965LT MB) has Slackware Linux 12.0 running the Linux version of Prime95. I was thinking of trying out Bluewhite64 12.0, which is an unofficial 64-bit port of Slackware. Will I have any problems running Prime95 (which is 32-bit - I know that there is an alpha version 25 that is 64-bit) on Bluewhite64?
