Seems you're missing to install libX11-6 (if you are on a 32bit system) or libX11-6-32bit if you're on a 64bit system. Cheers, Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi. Recent versions of Google Earth are broken. You have two options: 1) Search the latest known working version in Internet and install it 2) Follow the steps detailed at http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/485283-Google-Earth-7?p=2611672#po... I followed option 2 and works fine with that version 6.x and 7.1.2.2041 (the one I have installed by downloading the rpm from Google's Earth web) on 13.1. I haven't tried Factory but I think it should work anyway.

This sounds familiar. Does 3D-work? With KDE you should be able to use openGL. If that doesn't help, start it from a command line. The error messages there may help.
It is. cu Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi. There are differences depending on video card and driver. In my case it always failed or some seconds later. With the method I proposed in a previous message it works 100% of the times and it is very easy.
