When I run Google Earth, I get a warning message that says:

"You don't seem to have Bitstream Vera Sans font installed. Most Linux
distributions should ship with this font preinstalled. If you don't
have it, you can find a free download and installations at the following
link. We will continue with whatever font we could find, but some text
may look incorrect.

Yast shows that "bitstream-vera Bitstream Vera(tm) Truetype fonts Ver.
1.10-199 is installed.

I am reluctant to go to the gnome site and install a second version for
fear of incompatibilities later.

Also, I d/l'd the listed package, and the fonts in the package match up
namewise with the fonts listed in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/Vera*.

SuSE 10.2/32

Has anyone else seen and fixed this?

Ignore the warning message.
GoogleEarth runs fine as it is.



TIA
