Hi |
| 27 |
I also played around with googleearth a long time and found the following |
| 28 |
solution. |
| 29 |
I use amd64 |
| 30 |
xorg-server-1.5.3-r5 |
| 31 |
xf86-video-ati-6.11.0 |
| 32 |
googleearth-5.0.11337.1968_beta |
| 33 |
gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r3 |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I didn't get older versions of googleearth to run, they crash at startup. |
| 36 |
There are two important configuration options. |
| 37 |
The first ist with driconf gui |
| 38 |
Disable Low-impact fallback yes |
| 39 |
and the second is in xorg.conf |
| 40 |
without this option everything is flickering when I move the mouse |
| 41 |
Section "ServerFlags" |
| 42 |
Option GlxVisuals" "all" |
| 43 |
EndSection |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Hope this can help you |
| 46 |
If you need more config options just mail me |
| 47 |
