I just tried to run google earth on openSUSE 11.1, and it does not work. It stops with some error about my graphics driver not being installed correctly. I am not sure if that is the real reason, as I see this on stdout: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'QString' Google Earth has caught signal 6.

It is: QT: 4.5.1-4.1 and 3.3.8b-87.11 KDE: 4.2.3 (KDE 4.2.3) "release 3" It has worked for me before. The difference mow could be versions of KDE/QT.
