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,

I d/l version 4 last night and installed it.  It came up just perfect
and very impressive.
I am using 10.2 too.  I wonder what the difference is between your
installation and
mine.  I am using an NVIDIA card with 3D acceleration.

My card is a GEFORCE-2 MX-200 32MB AGP + TV-OUT and from 2001, so could be a little outdated!!
Thanks,
