I downloaded this for ubuntu - when I try to run it, the planet rotates
for a brief period then the PC locks up.

Has anyone else experienced this and sorted it out?

Regards

Nic

I believe the rotation of the planet is caused by momentum and is not
related to your linux problem.

Impossible to answer without further details: What CPU at what speed, how
much memory, what video card and driver? Sounds like your machine is short
on one or more of GE's requirements.
