Google Earth 6.2.2 SFS

#1 Post by Tman »

Hello,

I took the 32-bit .deb file from The Official Google Earth Website and converted it into an SFS.

I have only tested it in Slacko 5.3.3 Final so far, but it should work in most newer Pups.
The default language is English. If you want other langauges, you need to install the google_earth_NLS-6.2.2.pet.

The download link is http://www.smokey01.com/Tman/apps/Common-apps

Dependencies: Mesa, Xorg-High or a proprietary video driver needs to be installed before Google Earth can run.

enjoy! :P

Hi.
I downloaded Google earth, Java and Xorg-High but I do type in a location I get a message telling me :" Invalid HTTP requests".
Do you have any idea as to the problem ?
Thanks for your help

Sounds like a libcurl issue? Another potential option.

Depending on which pup you run <because nobody ever thinks to include this> try one of these:

Precise >> http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/di ... 7_sfs4.sfs

Slacko (maybe) >> http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/di ... -6.2.2.sfs

invalid http request

"Invalid http request"

Try renaming libcurl.so.4 in opt/google/earth to OLD-libcurl.so.4

Google Earth crashes at startup and "Signal 11 error"

download libGL.so.1
http://librarian.launchpad.net/7037027/libGL.so.1

download libGL.so.1.2
http://mymediasystem.net/wp/2009/01/libGL.so.1.2

Give both files executable and searchable permission (a+x)

Replace those files (and back them up) in /opt/google/earth/free

Should it not be enough, find those files in Pupi (make a backup) and replace wherever you find them.
