But the default one is outdated (the fc4 one is on the ports build cluster for testing it as an replacement ATM). Maybe you want to give the fc4 one a try (since it is withhin the range of supported distributions listed in the google earth requirements). To do this you have to add OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=fc4 to /etc/make.conf and replace "linux-XFree86-libs" with "linux-xorg-libs" in ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk . After this you can update with: portupgrade -f -o emulators/linux_base-fc4 linux_base[installed version] portupgrade -f -o x11/linux-xorg-libs linux-XFree86-libs[installed version] For [installed version] see var/pkg of each such as # ls -d /var/db/pkg/linux-XFree* /var/db/pkg/linux_base* /var/db/pkg/linux-XFree86-libs-4.3.99.902_7 /var/db/pkg/linux_base-8-8.0_15 This worked great for me but I'm still having problems with google earth. good luck, ed P.S.
