I think it should be able to resolve all "external" libs via standard path. You probably need to install 32-bit versions of a lot more libs, like Qt and the basic X11 stuff. The real problem here is that libraries used is not listed in the package requirements. Not to mention the fact that the so-called 64-bit package actually contains 32-bit binaries. Or at least, that's the case for the one I have - google-earth-stable-7.0.2.8415-0.x86_64. - Toralf > > thanks! > > Fred > This e-mail, including any attachments and response string, may contain proprietary information which is confidential and may be legally privileged.
