Bug#432950: I have the same problem. Unlike #442199 other GL apps aren't affected.

[Philipp Klaus Krause <pkk@spth.de>]

I use amd64 unstable, glxgears works fine, googleearth crashes X.

I have Intel graphics.
I tried with DRI enabled (965), DRI disabled (X server crash) and in
Xnest (Xnest crashes).

The last entry in /var/log/Xorg.0.log is
(EE) DoSwapInterval: cx = 0x16bda60, GLX screen = 0x850590
