nstalling Google Earth in Ubuntu Maverick is very simple. For Ubuntu Maverick 64 bit users,they need to install the dependance package: ia32-libs and lib32nss-mdns.
Open up a terminal window from Applications -> Accessories menu and run:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs lib32nss-mdns
After the installation of ia32-libs and lib32nss-mdns complete.
Then install googleearth-package from the default repository using this command:
sudo apt-get install googleearth-package
Then run the command:
make-googleearth-package --force
it will take a moment and finally generate a deb package.
Install the deb by the command (change the package name to yours):
sudo dpkg -i googleearth.deb
Finally,launch Google Earth from Applications – > Internet menu.
