The default one and the fcX ones are "good" (as in "officially =20
supported by FreeBSD"). But the default one is outdated (the fc4 one =20
is on the ports build cluster for testing it as an replacement ATM). =20
Maybe you want to give the fc4 one a try (since it is withhin the =20
range of supported distributions listed in the google earth =20
requirements). To do this you have to add
   OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=3Dfc4
to /etc/make.conf and replace "linux-XFree86-libs" with =20
"linux-xorg-libs" in ports/Mk/bsd.port/mk. After this you can update =20
with:
   portupgrade -f -o emulators/linux_base-fc4 linux_base
   portupgrade -f -o x11/linux-xorg-libs linux-XFree86-libs

We should see fc4 as the new default one "soon".

Updating the linux_dri port after switching the default linux base =20
port is on the TODO list. But you need working hardware acceleration =20
with a native program first.
