Arch Linux User Repository

I will not update (for now) to the latest version 7.3.6.9326 because it crashes continuously for me.

Thanks, unfortunate timing then.

For reference, with Gnome shell / wayland I need to

unset QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME
unset QT_QPA_PLATFORM

to avoid

Google Earth has caught signal 6.

Heelo Det, wrong assumptions: I've a full x86_64 system (3.12.9-2-ARCH) and an nvidia GTX-560 (331.38). BTW I applied it also on a SuSe at home without nvidia but with the same successful result. Compilation without restrictions (except the include path): gcc -I /usr/include/qt4/ -O3 -fPIC --shared baifaao.cpp -o baifaao.so Just in case it could shade some light, here is an ldd of my running

Removed "PKGEXT='.pkg.tar'" due to a request of having your own way through makepkg.conf.

I tried that, but even without "-O3" Google Earth just keeps freezing. I'm assuming you either don't have Nvidia or a 64-bit system.

I faced that too... but I used the solution from http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showpost.php?p=1678303&postcount=60 and it works like a charm. However I had to preload libpng12 or libpng15, because I had strange messages about "libpng error: bad parameters to zlib" Hope it will help...

Hi, me too [0209/185328:ERROR:net_util.cc(2195)] Not implemented reached in bool net::HaveOnlyLoopbackAddresses() [0209/185329:ERROR:nss_ocsp.cc(581)] No URLRequestContext for OCSP handler.

Also getting crashes on startup with the same flood of network-related errors shown by @frojnd. My system is fully up to date.

Same here.

google-earth crashes when I start it. Here is the output from terminal: [0130/112952:ERROR:net_util.cc(2195)] Not implemented reached in bool net::HaveOnlyLoopbackAddresses() [0130/112952:ERROR:nss_ocsp.cc(581)] No URLRequestContext for OCSP handler.

Any ideas how to solve this?
