I'm still running Ubuntu 7.10. I fixed the font problem with version 5 of Earth by going into synaptic and installing every package that could possibly be related to fonts.
It's working for me now, so I won't look into into any more, but hope this helps someone in tracking down the precise problem. -- [i965GME] missing characters in Google Earth with DRI enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
