This bug is like this one: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467206 and very similar as this one: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15019 To simply put -- I run google earth, immediately or after searching localization, I get (always) entire system freeze. Keyboard is not responding, mouse is not responding, the only thing is responding is cold power off button. System: opensuse 11.1, dell latitude e6500 with intel graphics (4500MHD). The list of all xorg-x11-* packages is here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=323580 The latest log of X11 after freeze is here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=323582 Please let me know what can I say more about it/help you investigate this issue.
The driver version (2.5) is too old. Various changes after that: exa->uxa, ums->kms. Please try a newer version, with xf86-video-intel>=2.8 (better the latest 2.9), xserver>=1.6, and kernel>=2.6.30 (better 2.6.31).
Gordon, thank you. Could you just tell me how I convert the numbering you use and what I see. For example I have xorg-x11-server with number 7.4-52.2 which is much greater value than 1.6. So either I meet this requirement or we are talking about different xservers.

You might ask Novell where to get the latest driver/xserver shipped by Novell.
OK, I did and I got this answer from Stefan: "With X11:XOrg packages you're already using xf86-video-intel 2.9.0/xserver 1.6.5. " In a second I will attach the log file explicitly, I thought the links were allowed. I will update the kernel as well, and then I will post if it did any difference.
Created attachment 30687 [details] /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old (from freeze)

It appears that I am not able to update xorg-* packages and I cannot update entire system too (first -- because after update X11 crashes at start, second -- because newer OS does not have KDE3 packages anymore). So sorry for the trouble, thank you for your help, I close the report now.
