Re: google earth.bin
Why did you download the Google Earth.bin file from an internet site?? Google Earth ver. 5.0.11337 is available from Synaptic Package Manager. It is a much easier installation and it gives you a launcher in the mint Menu.
Just open Synaptic and type googleearth in the search box. Check "Mark for Installation", when you get the list of required dependencies check "Apply" at the bottom right of the window, click on the big green check mark, and click "Apply" when you get the window asking if you really want to install this app. From here on, its all automatic. Google Earth will be downloaded and installed as you watch.
