The .sfs should work with other puppies, just rename it.

It has been reported that this version of Google-earth has some "features" which make puppy a bit sick: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 397#360780
You have been warned

Those problems are caused by the installation scripts. I removed them so it should work just fine. When I was testing it the splash screen came up and then crashed because OpenGL doesn't work on my computer.sikpuppy wrote: It has been reported that this version of Google-earth has some "features" which make puppy a bit sick: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 397#360780
Just an tiny question : Is there a google-earth archive out there , that does not rely on Xorg-High/Mesa/OpenGL ?
Seems that I had to change my whatever google-earth version wrapper script to
to make it find it's included Qt4 libraries ( of course before had Qt4 compiled -- took hours :LOL: ) .
Now I had disabled OpenGL/GLX/DRI for Xorg server 1.3.0 since I had two apps crashing if the default Puppy-4 mesa pkg was installed and loaded by Xorg .
