Don't bother with 32 bit, I have roadnav on 32 bit and it crashes. It 
starts, displays stuff, but as soon as I open map->address and it 
crashes. I'm running the latest roadnav-0.19. But then mplayer also 
crashes after 20-30 minutes of play, which is also a first. It may be 
something with my video hardware or my video drivers, you may have more 
luck though. With roadmap I suspect it's roadmap though.
