No, but it used to work without (through Mesa, which is still installed). Ph.

Hi list,

Just finished upgrading my laptop from 9.3 to 10.2 (online update performed).

I'm busy checking that everything survived the big switch, and I just noticed that GoogleEarth now refuses to start (never reaches past its splash screen). Latest version of GE available. Tried reinstalling from the .bin -- no effect.

Any hint ?

TIA

Are you using ATI card with the proprietary driver?

Start GE from a shell and you will see a bunch of messages. Invariably, its missing GL

First thing I tried. No message whatsoever. -----------------------------<cut>-------------------------------- pan@kermit:/opt/google-earth> ./googleearth -----------------------------<cut>-------------------------------- Stays like that forever, until I terminate the process. Nothing in /var/log/messages either (not that I supposed there would be). Ph.
