I installed the latest version of Google Earth on my 12.1 OpenSuse, but it does not start. Is there a trick to make it start? Thanks in advance André den Oudsten
This is usually due to a glibc (or other library) incompatibility. There are some libraries shipped with google-earth (which are placed in the google-earth install directory) which conflict with different versions of the same libraries installed on the machine. Removing/renaming the offending libraries in the google-earth install directory (so that it uses the installed system libs instead) usually fixes the issue. There are instructions for this on the google-earth support page (in fact, I think even in the FAQ). You'll have to google it (ironic, really) because I didn't save the link last time I had to do this. Starting google-earth from a terminal window should give you a hint, anyway. -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
