Giovanni, There appears to be no functionality under x86_64 :( The AGRSM code package is not yet functionally on x86_64 systems, except in Intel architecture emulation mode. This is because there is a 32 bit encypted component, precompiled at LSI/Agere Inc. It cannot be functionally linked with other 64 bit components compiled on a x86_64 system. When/if LSI Inc. provides the encypted component in 64 bit format, service will be possible.
