Yes, I did the modifications given earlier by Earl and one other poster and now google earth starts up.
but it complains there's no usable graphics card, and only displays the menus/borders/etc, with the main view window being empty/black.
I do have a supported graphics card (Nvidia GeForce 9800GT), and have the nvidia drivers installed.
can anyone advise how to make GE recognize it? I'm guessing it's failing because Google seems to be distributing 32-bit binaries instead of 64-bit binaries, but I've no clue how to fix this.
Clues will be appreciated!
try to install the nvidia 32bit compatibility libraries. if installed using the nvidia installer it asks you, if installed from elrepo use
nvidia-x11-drv-32bit package
Ah, thanks Lec! That was less than obvious, so I appreciate the guidance.
