Oops, that actually should have gone to the ML.

With OOTB I meant without tweaking the xorg.conf. I'm running mesa-7.0.1
and ati-6.7.195 but googleearth falls back to software rendering:

Warning, xpress200 detected.
do_wait: drmWaitVBlank returned -1, IRQs don't seem to be working correctly.
Try running with LIBGL_THROTTLE_REFRESH and LIBL_SYNC_REFRESH unset.

jan at jan ~/src $ echo $LIBGL_THROTTLE_REFRESH

jan at jan ~/src $ echo $LIBL_SYNC_REFRESH

jan at jan ~/src $


and with disable_lowimpact_fallback=1:

jan at jan ~/src $ disable_lowimpact_fallback=1 googleearth
ATTENTION: default value of option disable_lowimpact_fallback overridden
by environment.
Fatal error in __driConfigOptions line 129, column 0: illegal default
value: 1.
Google Earth has caught signal 6.

Here are my config/log: http://pastebin.ca/raw/751578

Or is this something I should talk about with google?
