Hi,
I installed google-earth, but on starting it all I get is a black screen.
Googling this you get 100's of hits, referring to things that I have
installed.
Relevant to this I have installed:
nvidia-glx
nvidia-glx-ia32
libgl1-nvidia-glx
nvidia-kernel-3.2.0-4-amd64
nvidia-kernel-common
with all their dependencies. Yet something is obviously missing :-(
any hints as to what it might be?
Running wheezy amd64 and this seems to be X's only problem...

You must install nvidia-glx from the i386-repöository. Look in the wiki or
howtos at "multiarch". You have to set up a multiarch environment.
On the other hand you can do as I did (I am lazy). I removed all nvidia-
packages and installed the nvidia-drivers from the nvidia site.
Pay attention, to build the 32-bit part, too.
Hans, I saw your previous post where you say:
"For those with the same problem: My workaround for now is just to
deinstall every nvidia package and use the installer from the nvidia
site. This let me install 64-bit and 32-bit driver, and googleearth is
happily running again."
But when I install NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.60.run and then
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-310.19.run I get a message:
ERROR: this .run file is intended for the
Linux-x86 platform, but you appear to be
running on Linux-x86_64. Aborting installation.
How did you install both drivers?
