Google Earth on FreeBSD 7.0

2009-07-01 Thread Mike Barnard
Hi,

I have installed Google Earth via ports but cannot get it to run. If i run
it from console, i get this:

 googleearth
./googleearth-bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libgthread-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory



I have searched for the library it says it cannot find. It is located in
/usr/local/lib; /usr/local/lib/libgthread-2.0.so.0

LD_LIBRARY_PATH has that path in its entry. Is there something I am missing.
Anybody managed to get it to work?

Regards,

Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in
a million chances happen 99% of the time.

If google earth program is a Linux program, have you installed and
started the Linux ABI? Maybe the needed library will be required
to be located in the /usr/compat/linux/ subtree.

Never tried, sorry.

Google earth is working on my box. But I am running 7.2 Release.
However it is touchy.  It will often crash the X server, it's slow and
if I change Virtual Desktops during startup It will crash very fast.
