I found this info by lots of digging through the google earth groups. Apparently the ATI drivers after version 8.27 broke some linkage in libGL.so.1 which is part of the package shipped from ATI. The workaround is to get an old version of that module and place it directly in your google-earth directory. Do not replace the existing file everywhere, just ADD it to your google earth directory (its not normally there). Here is the link to the original post, and it in turn contains a link to the actual file you need to download, rename, and save as specified. http://groups.google.com/group/earth-linux/msg/648d2419178a7f79 This worked for me on a Dell machine with an X1400 ATI card. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
Hey John, thanks very much for the info. It helped, i.e. I have working program now. It just complains that it runs in software emulation OpenGL mode, now hw one. Is this how it supposed to be?
