Google Earth 5 very slow
I just installed GE5 and it's very slow at panning and zooming and to respond to mouse clicks. When panning to a location it's very jerky like a 1 second frame rate. Zooming in or out is very slow too.
As an experiment, I installed it on XP (I have dual boot) and it runs much much smoother under XP, so I know my graphics card is up to the job and my network can stream the data fast enough.
Is this typical behaviour for GE under Linux? My installation went fine and I don't suffer any of the conflicts mentioned in other threads. Well at least I'm not seeing any warnings.
Is there any hardware acceleration that I need to enable somewhere?
