10.2 X86_64 smp Ati Raeon Mobility X1400

It works fine for me on a 32-bit installation and an nVidia GeForce 7300.

same here, on a 32bit with geforce 5700. but i DO see the same hangs (and with strace against the googleearth process, i see a flood of "illegal ioctl"), on a 64bit 10.1 with a radeon xpress 1100... So its either 64bit or radeon (i blame the latter). bye, MH -- Die unaufgeforderte Zusendung einer Werbemail an Privatleute verstößt gegen §1 UWG und 823 I BGB (Beschluß des LG Berlin vom 2.8.1998 Az: 16 O 201/98).

Probably right. Although It did work on 10.1 it was far slower than the windows version.

Did you send this strace to google?

there is an address at google to get actual help with the linux version??????????? I posted it on the community forum, in a thread about problems with graphics cards on linux... then some wiseguy actually suggested that i should disable direct rendering, because "most 64bit cpus have enough horsepower to power googleearth without hardware acceleration"... that was the point where i thought "Ah, the blind are discussing colors" and turned my back on that forum... anyways, whats the adress to send that strace? bye, MH -- Die unaufgeforderte Zusendung einer Werbemail an Privatleute verstößt gegen §1 UWG und 823 I BGB (Beschluß des LG Berlin vom 2.8.1998 Az: 16 O 201/98).

John

was it an upgrade from 10.1 to 10.2. I had the same problem and just reinstalled google earth and it worked fine.

Nick

It was nuke-the-drive-and-reinstall upgraded from 10.2 and after that I re-installed GE. It does launch and show the logo, and pulls 100% cpu, but never gets any farther. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I had the same problem with my SUSE 10.1, ATI M9 and ATI's proprietary drivers. However, with openSUSE 10.2 and using the open-source drivers (the ones that come with openSUSE), everything works fine.

openSUSE 10.2, KDE 3.5.5 Release 45, ATI All-In-Wonder 8500DV using radeon driver with 3D enabled and all is well. Works very well and fast considering the age of my stuff. Stan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
