1 **Note: This page is (somewhat) obsolete.** Chrome has a native 64-bit build now
. Normal users should be running 64-bit Chrome on 64-bit systems. However, it's
possible developers might be using a 64-bit system to build 32-bit Chrome, and w
ill want to test the build on the same system. In that case, some of these tips
may still be useful (though there might not be much more work done to address pr
oblems with this configuration). | |

3 Many 64-bit Linux distros allow you to run 32-bit apps but have many libraries m
isconfigured. The distros may be fixed at some point, but in the meantime we hav
e workarounds. | |

5 ## IME path wrong | |

rong ELF class: ELFCLASS64` | |

13 | Ubuntu Hardy, Jaunty | [190227](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32
-libs/+bug/190227) | | |
14 | |
15 Workaround: If your xinput setting is to use SCIM, im-scim.so is searched for in
lib32 directory, but ia32 package does not have im-scim.so in Ubuntu and perhap
s other distributions. Ubuntu Hardy, however, has 32-bit im-xim.so. Therefore, i
nvoking Chrome as following enables SCIM in Chrome. | |
