ATI R300 and google earth

Notes on ATI R300 and Google Earth (4.2 and 4.3b):
1. AMD64 kernel - GE not compiled in AMD64. The net say possible. I say it's a hassle. So is flash player. Detected Video driver: fglrx.
2. Kernel etch stable 2.6.18-6-486 i686, detected driver ati. GE locks on loading (R300 problem).
3. Try fglrx driver by installing fglrx-driver and ati kernel, GE hangs on load (no message) on either fglrx or ati (xorg.conf).
4. Delete and purge fglrx driver, GE runs good!
Alhamdulillah
