Public bug reported: After installing Google Earth from medibuntu, I expected firefox (or any other webbrowser) to open KML/KMZ urls using the just-installed googleearth application.
Example: On http://www.google.com/gadgets/directory?synd=earth&cat=featured&preview There are many links to KML/KMZ files. Click on one of them should open googleearth, but it does not. For your information: Mime types for KML and KMZ files are "application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml" and "application/vnd.google- earth.kmz" respectively.
