What do I need to make 32bit games play on x86-64 with intel gm965?

I have been trying to get a bunch of 32bit games to play on x86-64 with no luck.
Ive tried quake4, prey, and now doom3 and all seem to have the same issues. They start to work and the screen goes black, then it just goes right back to the desktop.
I have installed the entire lib32 group, and still no luck. I even tried install lib32-intel-dri from aur but still no luck.
Do I still use lib32-nvidia-utils with an intel chipset, because thats what gets installed by default when i install the lib32 group?
Here is the output from doom3 (quake4, and prey had a very similar output where they all said idRenderSystem::Shutdown() but I already removed the packages out of frustration so I dont have the outputs from them, Im pretty sure its probably the same exact problem with all of them though)

Dump lib32, get a 32-bit chroot, and run with schroot -p "your game"
Within your chroot you'd need to have the intel drivers installed in a version exactly matching your main system's. It takes a bit more HD space (less than 1 GB), but you get a much easier system since you're using the packages maintained in the repos by devs/TUs instead of lib32 packages maintained (primarily) by volunteers for their own specific system.

what do i need to make my emac wifi capable seeing i cant buy an adapter seeing they come with a cd to download

Another option, if your eMac has USB 2.0 is a USB plug in WiFi adapter.
This will have software that's needed for this device to be recognized and work, also.
It maybe software on CD or a download from a website.
Do a search for USB WiFi adapters Mac OS X.

Hi ...
You need to upgrade your Mac OS X so you can run the latest version of iTunes for iOS compatibiity.
First, you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard > Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard - Technical Specifications
Snow Leopard is available from the Apple online store > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store
Once you have Snow Leopard installed you will have access to the App Store where you can purchase v10.8 Mountain Lion If your Mac meets v10.8 Mountain Lion requirements > System requirements for OS X Mountain Lion
You can upgrade directly from v10.6 Snow Leopard to v10.8 Mountain Lion without having to purchase v10.7 Lion.

What programs are required to create a game like this? Can it be done using only Adobe products?

Have you ever developed a game before? I only ask because there is a lot involved in doing so and you listed a long list of features you wish to accomplish. The game you mentioned was developed by Social Point, most of their games are for Facebook as well as a few for iOS, you can begin to see some of the technologies they leverage by looking at their job openings. They mention things such as: Illustrator, Flash, C++, Lua, Java, Air, Actionscript, MySQL, Apache, PHP, Python, PHP, Ruby, etc., and no doubt more is involved as well.
As you can see a lot goes in to games such as these. If you wish to try and leverage Flash you would need to learn and become very proficient with AS3 if you are not already familiar with it, you would also need to also know or learn backend technologies for your leader boards, etc., Again there is a lot involved with this type of development. Of course I am not trying to discourage you but want you to know the road ahead may involve a lot of learning as games themselves can be very sophisticated applications regarding development.
Here are some resources for Flash that may get you started if thats the direction you wish to take:

There are other possible alternatives also besides Adobe products such as Corona SDK, etc..

What do I need to make my iMac + xbox 360 hook up to my current router

I need to find a way to make my iMac wireless and don't know what would be best for my set up. I have cable broadband through a rca router, which then hooks up to my vonage phone device, which then connects to my linksys WRT150N which has an emachines pc through ethernet and a sony laptop wireless connected to it. I want the iMac, which is downstairs to be hooked up to the internet wirelessly if possible and my son also has a wireless adapter for his XBOX 360 that he wants to use as well. I know this sounds tres' complicated and I have given lots of information here but if anyone knows what I should get for this situation, I would be most appreciative! Airport of some sort? Third party stuff that's compatible? I am so confused!

Achieving data rates of 54 Mbps requires that all users have an AirPort Extreme Card and connect to an AirPort Extreme Base Station. If a user of a Wi-Fi Certified 802.11b product joins the network, that user will get up to 11 Mbps and AirPort Extreme users will get less than 54 Mbps. Actual speed will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network and other factors.
imac specification I am guessing your imac g4 is usb 2 and requires an airport extreme wireless card.
The xbox360 wireless adaptor should be able to connect to your router.
To enable the imac to stream photos, movies, music to xbox360 you'll need a piece of software called Connect360. you get that here: http://www.nullriver.com/products/connect360
I'll give you my network setup if yours fails.
Two Apple Extreme N routers, First router hardwired to cable modem and the "bridged" second apple router. The first router also has a HP laserjet 24/7 connected to its usb port and one more hardwire to a pc laptor downstairs(no wireless card in the piece of crap windows machine). Second router hard waired to Vonage and an Apple Express router which I set up to create its own network. The xbox360 upstairs wirelessly connects to the Apple Express. I also have apple TV wireless to first apple Extreme router. Everything works fine and network is extremely fast.

What do I need to make a bootable external disk?

I got a response from Apple support that said I could make an external disk a bootable one, like a flash drive or ext hard disk, by using an OS X Installer app that was supposed to be available at the Mac App Store. I looked and couldn't find it. Since we no longer get a hard-copy of the system install disk, I was trying to figure out what to do to make a 500Gb external disk one I could boot using the MacBook Air with its limited GB storage.
So if anyone can give me the simple solution I'd appreciate it.

Get an external disk drive. Start by partitioning and formatting it:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Next, clone your existing system disk to the external one:
Clone Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
Test the new clone by:
Boot Using OPTION key:
1. Restart the computer.
2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
      "OPTION" key.
3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
4. Select the external disk's icon.
5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.

You cannot run Mac OS X on a Windows machine. You need a Mac to run Mac OS.
Macs can run Windows, but Windows PCs cannot run Mac OS.

What do I need to make my Dual 2 GHz Power Mac G5, 512 MB DDR2 SDRAM wireless?

I was looking at getting this
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0000899ZB/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1363349066&sr=8-1&pi=S L75
But it's not compatible with the Mac Pro or the Power Mac G5 Dual and Power Mac G5 Quad computers.
I'm having a hard time find what is compatible.

Dual Processor and Dual Core are not the same.
The Late 2005 G5 had single dual core processors in 2.0 and 2.3 GHz, with the Quad having dual dual core processors.
Earlier G5s were all pre-multi core processors, so would be dual processors.
If your machine is a PowerMac 11,2, the special Airport Extreme/Bluetooth module on the runway card (must have) is what your machine uses.
The following explains teh "kit":

What cables are needed to extend the range of my airport extreme with my time capsule

I just purchased a new Time Capsule, and I want to install it and use my current Airport Extreme to extend our home's wireless network. What extra cables are needed, and is there a diagram for this setup? We currently have a broadband network.

Apple's instructions to do this are here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4260
You will need an Ethernet cable to connect your new Time Capsule to the AirPort Extreme.

What do I need to do to replace my 80 gig HDD with a larger capacity HDD?

I have an older Mac mini, running OSX 10.6.8 @ 1.83 GHz w/2 GB ram. It is used primarily for email, iPhone photo storage, and online banking. Works, but now I am out of memory. rather than buy a new unit, I'd prefer to replact the 80 GB HDD with a larger capacity drive. What do you recommend?

No such thing as a "PC hard drive". Im sure it comes formatted in MSDOS or otherwise, ...doesnt mean anything.
Ive got a 100 drives laying around here, most came formatted in DOS or Exfat or NTFS , just formatted all of them for Mac.
format the HD as Mac OSX extended journaled ,....takes 5 seconds.
CLONING:
1. grab carbon copy cloner or superDuper CLONE app.
2 attach target clone drive via USB in an enclosure or HD dock. Firstly format the target (external new) HD or SSD in disk utility in “Mac OS extended journaled”
3. clone internal HD to target HD or SSD (external) [takes about 40 mins depending on size]
4. Boot ONCE from external (go to sys. preference to boot from external) to TEST the new Clone
5. open bottom (see videos on ifixit or youtube on same) and remove old, install new.
(this video is for a 2012, look at this site for YOUR specific year / model)
http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Replacing+MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Unibody+Mid+2012+Hard+ Drive/10378/1
Done
(FIRST TIME after installing, boot will be SLOW,...normal and ignore that).
Clone APPS
Superduper does not clone the recovery partition, but that is NOT necessary if you keep the original HD as a “backup clone”. Most don’t bother with the recovery partition in a clone, however that is your prerogative.

My 80 gb drive has about 1 gb available,
Sounds like an old drive there....... nice Hitachi or Toshiba 1TB external drive is average $70
Time for a new (additional) archive HD for data protection.

Need to make Value Set as Case insenstive attached with a DFF on OA Page

Hi All,
I have enabled DFF on iExpense web page, OA Page, and attached a Value set to this DFF. This is an independent Value Set. Now when user enters a value in this DFF and press tab then it validates and chaged accordingly. Suppose user enters a value 'card' whereas Value set has value as 'Card'. now when user press tab button it changes automaticaaly to 'Card'. But if user enters 'card' and press 'Next' button on page it throws an exception that this value is not available in the value set.
Kindly let me know that how can I overcome from this problem.
Thanks,
Sandeep

You can add the read-only token ($RO$) after any of the segments in the list. For example, the ($RO$) designator below sets Segment1 in structure code 1 to be read-only:
Structure code1|Segment1($RO$)|Segment2...
