Glad that worked.

Yes.  The default java that we send out in the Linux installer
is the 32-bit version.

You can allocate more memory than 2 Gb for the IDV if you have it.

If you can wait until next week, I'm going to add a 64 bit Linux
installer to the suite.  Then you can just download the nightly
build.  If you want to use version 2.5, let me know and I'll
send instructions.
