Hello, all: After much head bashing, I decided to try starting X using 'startx', bypassing gdm. My nvidia card is now working splendidly with the 195.36.03 beta driver, which I installed using the nvidia installer (as that seems to be the easiest way to ensure I have 32-bit compatible OpenGL libraries, which Google Earth requires). Maybe I should file a bug against gdm for apparent (although not invariable) incompatibility with nvidia drivers?
