I usually install with the ".run" (180.27 x86-64 here) downloaded from Nvidia, and the card is a Geforce 8600gt (kernel is 2.6.28.3). I tested on a semi-old Compaq laptop with ati Radeon mobility U1 chip, free radeon driver (direct rendering is on), under Ubuntu "Hardy" (kernel 2.6.24*, x86, Gnome) and it works Ok even if a bit slow. Maybe you're having a problem with direct rendering or OpenGL, your video card should be overkill for GoogleEarth so I guess the problem is with your xorg.conf, or a somehow broken Nvidia driver install. Do you have the direct rendering on ? Tom -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
