The driver version is old. Given it works with other graphics card manufacturers and other cards from nVidia it's most likely a driver problem. See if a new one is available for nVidia or whether they can provide one.

This might be related to http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php?Cat=0&Number=606991 You're not using Ubuntu though... Yet the SiS 630 and/or OpenGL might be a common factor here...

I'm running SUSE 10.1 and the latest Google Earth 4 Beta (10/5/2006). My video card is an NVIDIA Quadro (I think it's a 1400 model). Video drivers are x86-1.0-8774.

When I try to run Google Earth, it hangs on the splash screen, and does nothing,
Running it in a terminal produces the output: Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
Any ideas how to fix it?

I just updated to the latest beta driver from nVidia (9625), and the display is OK.

Setting in xorg.conf the value "default depth 16"
Is the fix for my Matrox G400 video card in a Ubuntu system that I just upgraded to "6.06 LTS"
---------------------
My experience has been, Google Earth worked fine when I had Breezy Badger 5.05. I upgraded to 6.06 LTS in September 2006 and immediately had a whole bunch of stuff break. The problem many people experienced is the xorg had to be pushed back to an earlier package. ---------------
Other packages were broken and in every case, some simple configuration was the problem. ------------------ For google earth, I repeatedly got the error "OpenGL" not supported. I ran: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver In the past, selecting "vesa" driver resolved some apparent problems with getting OpenGL working. The setting I never changed was "default depth 24". ---------------------- Well, changing that default depth value in xorg.conf immediately makes Google Earth run just fine.

I just installed Google Earth on Dapper Drake. I put it in /opt and the exported the XDG_DATA_HOME and DIRS variables after the error at the console.
I'm getting the same issue and my xorg driver info is:
(II) NVIDIA X Driver 1.0-8776 Mon Oct 16 21:58:46 PDT 2006
I think that's the latest. I've got an NVIDIA 6200 also.
So the problem is something else?

I've got my graphicscard up and running. direct rendering enabled and working (glxgears running at ~750 fps)
System is: Asus M5N-Notebook, Intel Integrated Graphics (i810), Debian 3.1, XFree 4.3.0.1
export LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo |grep direct
returns the following:
libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 1.3.0 i830 (screen 0) libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/i830_dri.so libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 1.3.0 i830 (screen 0) drmOpenByBusid: busid is PCI:0:2:0 drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 4, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 4 drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports PCI:0:2:0 direct rendering: Yes
part of my XF86Config-4:
Section "Device" Identifier "internal_i810" BusID "PCI:0:2:0" Driver "i810" Option "DisplayInfo" "FALSE" VideoRam 32768 EndSection
GoogleEarth still refuses to work and says that my graphics-card is not supported or drivers are not correct installed. Don't know what do do, because i know (from searching for solutions on google.com) that the i810 IS supported somehow.
Any ideas?!
