Google Earth plays nice with Compiz and Ubuntu 10.10
,----[ Quote ]
| For those of you who follow me on
| Twitter, you may have noticed a bit of
| excitement yesterday as I tested out
| Google Earth on Ubuntu 10.10.
|
| The last time I tried Google Earth on
| Ubuntu was late last year and I remember
| that I couldnât get it working with
| Compiz effects enabled â OpenGL was slow
| and flickered so much it was unusable
| when effects were enabled. When effects
| were disabled, it wasnât much better.

Frustrated with Flash taking up obscene system resources even after it's been closed? Here's a simple command for your ~/.bashrc that will kill any running Flash processes.

Marble provides basic engine for free Google Earth replacement

| The Free Software Foundation can cross off another item on its high priority
| list of applications that free software needs in order to compete. Version
| 0.6 of Marble, which ships with KDE 4.1, may not rival Google Earth just yet,
| but the underlying engine has the potential to do so in future versions. The
| main improvements needed to reach this stage are a lower level of detail and
| some additional views and integration into free online resources.
