Hi, I have HP Mini 5101 netbook with Intel 945GME graphics chip running Fedora 12.
When I install latest Google Earth 5.1 (and also tried with 5.0) I get this error: Clamped Polygons Not Supported/Clamped polygons will only be shown in outline on your machine. Your graphics card is not capable of supporting this feature.
I can try to ignore this error but there are lots of polygons that flash wildly and randomly on the screen, it looks really bad :(
I have tried running Google Earth under Windows with same version of Google Earth and I this issue isn't present there, you can see polygons and they work ok.
This looks to me as a intel driver related bug. Is there a way to make Google Earth and Intel play well together or I need to wait a bug fix?
Do you need some additional information? If you need it just say which info you need.
Cheers!
