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.

had darose's flickering issues on a intel GPU in i3 wm. I can confirm the flcikering goes away with xcompmgr running

Det commented on 2012-02-06 09:51 (UTC)

It's not. I'd assume it's just for GPUs with a bad driver.

darose commented on 2012-02-06 04:42 (UTC)

Hmmm ... I think I have my answer: turn on compositing. When I turn that on, all the flicker goes away. Odd. I didn't realize compositing was a requirement for GE. Thanks -- DR

DL0 - great tip! That worked fine ... under KDE4.8. Only problem is, I normally use XFCE. :-( Any idea how to duplicate that setting under that DE?

After installing Bumblebee I got many error messages, no navigation controls, missing tiles and poor performance running Google-Earth 6.2 with optirun on my Thinkpad T520. I was able to improve it substantially by renaming (or removing) the libGL.so.1 and libGLU.so.1 files in /opt/google/earth/free and creating a symlink to the libGL.so.1 and libGLU.so.1 files in /usr/lib/ I'm getting a "./googleearth.bin: corrupted double linked list" message that needs to be resolved but at least Google Earth now works! ...Doug

darose - Try using vsync. It eliminated the flickering for me using KDE 4.8. (For KDE, in the "Advanced" tab under Desktop Effects in System Settings/Workspace Appearance). ...Doug

Looks like it is now! Sorry though. I just assumed it was. Wrong thing to do!

Det commented on 2012-01-27 13:34 (UTC)

But not for linux.

bananaoomarang commented on 2012-01-27 10:51 (UTC)

6.2 is out.

Det commented on 2012-01-27 07:10 (UTC)

And I wasn't suggesting that you were suggesting. I was suggesting that the one who flagged this thing was.
