"Me too!"
More specifically, i see this on a Thinkpad T43 with a fresh vanilla install of Ubuntu 6.06.1. What's worse, the "Maximize and restore" workaround no longer seems to work with the latest Google Earth release.

Hi,
I've got the same problem with GE running on Mepis 6.0 (a derivitive of Ubuntu Dapper) on an Acer Travelmate 4100WLMi (Intel 915GM)
All the DRI and DRM stuff seems to be working:
Quote:
[Email]root@5[~]#[/Email] dmesg |grep drm
[17179606.732000] [drm] Initialized drm 1.0.1 20051102

[Email]root@5[~]#[/Email] grep -i "Direct rendering" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(II) I810(0): direct rendering: Enabled
Most of the XOrg log looks OK:

(II) I810(0): [dri] visual configs initialized

There is one possible problem in the Xorg log:
Quote:
[Email]root@5[~]#[/Email] grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libGLcore.so
(EE) Failed to load module "GLcore" (loader failed, 7)
I would be grateful for any suggestions.
Thanks,
Paul.

I recently upgraded to mandriva 2007 (which has xorg 7.1 rather than 6.9 and things have improved somewhat, but it still isn't right. The corruption and bad positioning has gone, but a new problem has developed, the picture flashes constantly whenever it is moving or the mouse pointer is over the main part of the google earth window. Parts of windows placed in front of google earth also have a tendancy to go black and have to be moved away and minimised/maximised to force them to redraw.
