Hi Rubin, I use OpenOffice 2.3.0 - the default version in CentOS 5.2 (openoffice.org-core-2.3.0-6.5.1.el5_2) and I use experimentally OpenOffice 3.0 beta2 - both run without any problems. GoogleEarth was slightly older - version 4.2.0205.5730. I upgraded to the latest one - version 4.3.7284.3916 (beta) - and it is significantly slower, there is a huge CPU load (almost 100%, both cores) and after the installation I had problems with SELinux, but it is usable. I tried it on a laptop with ATI GPU (OpenSuse 11.0, x86_64, fglrx) and it crashes after the start.
