Hi,

uhm...Intel doesn't ship a 64-bit x86 processor. Only AMD is very publicly trying to do that. If you want to know how linux runs on IA64, then buy David Mosberger and Stephane Eranian's excellent book appropriately titled "IA-64 Linux".
You should look at any of the numerous "How-TO write a driver":
