Attn: Fedora 64-bit users

As you may or may not know, Fedora is pretty unique in the way that it runs 64-bit & 32-bit libraries side-by-side so you don't need a separate chroot for 32-bit stuff. So as long as you install the .i586 versions of the required libraries, you can build/run pcsx2 no problems on a 64-bit install.

I've finally got it working but what took me the longest to figure out was that you need the following package or you get a segfault when trying to launch a game (this assuming you're using an Nvidia card using the closed-source driver):

xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i586

I now have pcsx2 running with pretty much no problems, (nice speed too). Hope this helps someone else!
