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.

Hi Det, No, I didn't have time to download and build a GE6 pkg this morning. Will try to do it later. Thanks for the paste. I wondered if the 32 [i686 ;-)] vs 64 bit would make any difference.

I have fixed my crush installing https://launchpadlibrarian.net/7037027/libGL.so.1. But earth view is completelly grey :)

Det commented on 2013-02-04 11:25 (UTC)

Yes, I have an x86 machine, but my system is 64-bit, if that's what you meant :). Not that it matters, since the app is 32-bit anyway. I had a look at it yesterday when I compared the two and I can't say it helps (the one with 65-fonts-persian.conf): http://pastebin.com/B7FwBbxV The hyphen/hash break at line 861 signals the differences after the 3rd gettimeofday() (which in my case is called twice in a row). E: You had a look at the GE6 log yet?

lineage commented on 2013-02-04 09:06 (UTC)

Det, libGL didn't help. Two more datapoints. Google earth doesn't even get as far as creating a crashlog. If I run onto a remote X display on another machine I get the same behavior. If I run the googleearth (6.2) from the remote machine with its display on this machine, it does a lot better, we get spash screen and eventually a crashlog. If you have this v7 installed on an x86 machine, can you tell me what happens on your system after the futex call? Might be a useful clue.

lineage commented on 2013-02-04 08:45 (UTC)

Thanks Det, I'll try the libGL. The X driver for the graphics on this CPU has caused me obscure problems before. If all else fails I'll try v6 too, but I have a bad feeling it won't help.

Det commented on 2013-02-04 00:05 (UTC)

No, it has nothing at all to do with /etc/localtime. There's also the business interest with Windows and keeping your source closed. That's why other people can't fix the black screen problems (which are Intel/Mesa related anyway).

olive commented on 2013-02-03 22:46 (UTC)

Just my thought. How does Google manage to make a so buggy software? It crashes because we have a cyrillic font, it does not show the earth just black instead, and now /etc/localtime??? We could expect more from Google

Det commented on 2013-02-03 22:27 (UTC)

Yeah, that's a really obscure error (posting in here for everyone to see: http://pastebin.com/jgEYLStx) and I'm afraid I've got nothing to go on. You could try installing https://launchpadlibrarian.net/7037027/libGL.so.1 to /opt/google/earth/free/ and see if it makes a difference (an old workaround for Intel cards). But I doubt it will.
