Just a heads-up for those using non-nvidia cards, Google Earth is now able to use hardware acceleration with the recently updated dri-devel port.

Tested with an ATI Radeon and linux_base-fc4.
I have:

   subclass = VGA

   device   = 'Radeon X300 Series - Secondary'
   class    = display

I installed new linux_dri port, but google-earth doesn't want to use
hardware acceleration.
How to make it use hw acceleration?

According to http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon?action=highlight&value=CategoryHardware an X300 is not well supported for 3D. So if you don't get HW accelerated 3D with a FreeBSD native program, you will not have HW acceleration in a linux program either.

Bye,
Alexander.
