3D acceleration acting strange with Google Earth plugin

Post by tienhn »

Hi All,
My system: Lenovo T61P, NVidia graphic built in. Host Ubuntu Linux 64 bit. Guest Windows XP Pro.
I turned on 3D Accelerate option. Everything works great so far including Google Earth application for Windows in DirectX mode.

However, with the Google Earth plug in, the earth got rendered in a tiny size as you can see in this screen shot:

Turn OFF 3D accelerate and use Google in OpenGL mode, Google Earth plug in display at the correct size. Of course, tested Google Earth plug in on the real hardware mode and it works fine.

Other than that, really enjoy the latest 3.04!
Cheers,
