If i start googleearth, an "Bus error" appears. Nothing more.
I am running openSUSE-10.3-64bit on a Thinkpad Z61p with fglrx-8.39.4, i had many other problems with 8.40, 8.41 and 8.42 (xv and opengl), 8.443 doesn't support my screen resolution (1920x1200) and 8.45 does not support my card (FireGL 5200, 256MB).
I had the same error (same screen resolution too. After lots of dicking around I found that the ati installer (i used it to build an rpm and then installed that rpm) sometimes puts some of the modules in a directory that is not high enough in the search path.
When you get a new ati install, the libGL is usually in the wrong place for googleearth and has to be softlinked in your ~/googleearth directory in place of the one that they ship.
Hmm, libGL.so.1.2 is in /usr/lib/xorg with softlinks to /usr/lib/xorg/libGL.so.1 and to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 And i also did the workaround with libGL from ati-fglrx-8.27, but nothing! -- Frank Fiene / IT-Services Fon: +49 2526 29-6200 Fax: +49 2526 29-16-6200 mailto: ffiene@veka.com www.veka.com VEKA AG Dieselstr. 8 48324 Sendenhorst Deutschland/Germany Vorstand: Andreas Hartleif (Vorsitzender), Dr. Andreas W.
