google earth and slow frame rates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm trying to get FC6/x86_64 to run google earth on two different
systems.  Neither one is usable.

system 1: a compaq v5000z: Google earth runs just fine under that
Redmond OS, but under FC6 it uses software emulation and is unusably
slow.

        (--) PCI:*(1:5:0) ATI Technologies Inc ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE) rev 0, Mem @ 0xc8000000/27, 0xc0100000/16, I/O @ 0x9000/8

system 2: amd64 desktop (tyan 2465 w. ATI x300):

       (--) PCI: (1:5:0) ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL rev 39, Mem @ 0xfc000000/24, 0xfdfff000/12, I/O @ 0xac00/8
       (--) PCI:*(5:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] rev 0, Mem @ 0xd8000000/27, 0xfe3f0000/16, I/O @ 0x6c00/8
       (--) PCI: (5:0:1) ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE] rev 0, Mem @ 0xfe3e0000/16

This second system emits some gripes and then runs at approximately 1
frame per second which is also unusable.

     bash-3.1$ googleearth
     libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
     *********************************WARN_ONCE*********************************
     File r300_render.c function r300Fallback line 428

     *********************************WARN_ONCE*********************************
     File r300_state.c function r300Enable line 513
     TODO - double side stencil !
     ***************************************************************************

Is there something I can do to get it to run faster?  (Like turning
off the opengl things it was griping about?)
