[wellylug] Google Earth issues

[Steve Macdonald]

Check /var/log/xorg.0.log (typically, but it may be a slightly
differently named log in /var/log) for details of the crash.

After checking the log you mentioned the only difference between the old log and the new one is this at the bottom

"Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

(II) SIS(0): Restoring by setting old mode 0x4a"


Contact your vendor for support -- even if Google Earth is doing crazy
things it shouldn't crash the X server so there is a serious bug there.

And I found this on some google help file but I am not sure what it means, I am assuming that this line has to be inserted into some file?

"GLIBC ISSUES:

 If you crash on startup, you may have an outdated version of glibc, or a bad
  interaction between Nvidia's drivers and glibc's pthread support. Many of
  these cases can be resolved by exporting this environment variable before
  running Google Earth.

    LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.10"



Cheers

Steve
