HelloHas anybody managed to get GoogleEarth (latest version) running on amd64? I tried the fglrx drivers from unstable and experimental and both work according to fglrxinfo and fgl_glgears. Just if GoogleEarth starts either from amd64 or from inside an i386 chroot (which had the matching fglrx versions installed), I can see the start logo and then GoogleEarth freezes. With strace I see very much of those lines at the end: futex(0x819898c, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 0 futex(0x819898c, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 0 futex(0x819898c, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 0 futex(0x819898c, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 0 futex(0x819898c, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 0 ...
I had this problem for quite a while until I found the advice at: http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/620003/page/0/fpart/2/vc/1 Basically I found an older version of the driver and grabbed the i386 version of libGL.so and put it in the google-earth directory with all of the other libraries. It now seems to work, although I haven't used it extensively after that. Good Luck, Bill -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
