Hi,

I downloaded and installed Google Earth 5.0 on my Aspire One A150, and when i start it, it says that my resolution is to low. Google Earth requires 1024x768, and my screen displays 1024x600 pixels. Is there a way to maybe config it or am i lost? The funny thing is that i'm only 178 pixels from making it!

Help?

There is a xorg setting something like:



Section "Screen"

Subsection "Display"
Virtual 1600 1200


I **think** if you edit this and set it to your required size, you should be able to "pan" and install google earth.

Here another thread that has to do with virtual sizes - but there's probably a lot more out there:
