Building Amarok on one machine, running it on another ...

the x86_64 above says that you are running a 64 bit environment on the first 
machine; the i686 below says that you are running a 32 bit environment on the 
second machine. 
When you compile on the first machine you are compiling a 64 bit runtime, which 
cannot run on a 32 bit system. 

There are some ways to compile a 32 bit program on a 64 bit system, but you 
should also link to all 32 bit libraries and stuff, which makes it a non-
trivial, (yet instructive) endeavor to do on your own.
