[opensuse] Nvidia card is not recognised with GoogleEarth
Having some time on hand I decided to install GoogleEarth on my fully updated 11.3 machine. I had a working GoogleEarth on the 11.2 but as I seldom make use of the 11.2 I thought it a good idea. Download and install was without problems. Running it gave me an error information. GoogleEarth did not recognize your graphics card. It make of course the showing of the earth and maps not possible. I have a Nvidia Geoforce2 MX/MX400 for which I automatically got the following files installed: nvidia-gfxGO1-kmp-default nvidia-settings nvidia-texture-tools vpau-video-nvidia x11-video-nvidiaGO1 I tried to use nvidia-xconfig but this program makes a xorg.conf file after which no X11 is able to run. The kernel seems to completely taken over my nvidia card. Do not know why GoogleEarth does not find my video card. Should I try to use nuvo?
