Hello SuSE people

Downloaded Google Earth this afternoon. Seems to be a script of some
kind. What do I need to do to run it.


Say the downloaded installer file is called "GoogleEarthLinux.bin". To launch the installer you'd issue this command:

% sh GoogleEarthInstaller.bin

I don't recall any more, but you may have to answer some questions. You'll probably at least have to affirm your acceptance of the license under which that software is distributed.


If you do this as your usual non-root user, then the files installed will be owned by you, which is OK. If for some reason you want the files to be owned by some other user, "su" to that user first.

I'm running openSUSE 10.2 and downloaded GoogleEarthLinux.bin version 4.
Running sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin - as required at the download site - installed GoogleEarthLinux.
Running googleearth gave me a startscreen and a crash of KDE.
The command sh GoogleEarthInstaller did not work.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Andre den Oudsten
