Is anyone running IDEA on a 64-bit JVM on Linux? If so, any hints, setup-tips, gotchas etc to share?
Yup, I'm running Irida on amd64. Works pretty well. I use sun's jdk 5 for development, and blackdown's 1.4.2_01 as the Iridia jre. (Add -Didea.no.jdk.check=true to the idea.sh startup script - I don't now about the .lax stuff but I guess it's similar)
To run Pallada on amd64 is a bit more work. Run it on on blackdowns's jdk for Idea's runtime(add the -Didea.no.jdk.check=true), delete the libbreakgen.so (it's 32bits...), and add a symlink from 'amd64' to . in the jdk bin directory: (ln -s /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01/bin/amd64 /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01/bin or similar) - for some reason IDEA wants to run ]]>/bin/amd64/java. Don't know what's up with that, but this fixed it. After that it works ok.
Is it worth doing?
Well, it works for me(tm), but with Pallada debugging was somewhat flakey. Irida works almost out of the box, so I'd recommend running that one. (I run build 3245)

Running here...
At the moment I use Gentoo with 32Bit Emulation.
I had running idea under SUN JDK 1.5 successfully too (more ore less ;).
