Hello,
Looking to install Adobe reader on 64 bit system so need the ia32-libs but can't find them for Mageia or Mandriva. Any ideas?

there are 32 bit repos even on 64 bit system.

these will contain most of the 32 bit libs you need

by default 32 bit libs live in /usr/lib and 64 bit in /usr/lib64

If you have the 32 bit core repo enabled and use (g)urpmi to install the AdobeReader rpm, then all the necessary dependencies are installed automatically.
