Hey juliokarl2, this worked for me also. At least it got it to working. I get the message that I'm running under emulation mode (even though I'm using ati's binary), and it doesn't seem as fast as it should be, such as under windows (this is a dual boot w/ winxp, and GE runs really smooth on it), but it is working fairly smooth. Since my last post, I've upgraded to ubuntu edgy. I guess I'll have to wait for an official response from google on this. But I'm fairly happy right now. Now, on to other hacks. Thanks!
