| 823668 | 2009-10-24 15:29:00 | I have downloaded Google Earth onto the desktop of PCLOS, and it sits there as a . bin-something or other . Now what? What do I use to open and run the thing? PS: I am not really Renee - this is SurferJoe and I'm using another computer at the moment - mine is still not really up-and-running yet . I need to get a better antenna for the wireless to get as better signal, so I am across the yard at another's house here in Anza . I will be on satellite after a while and I will get FULLY-SYMMETRICAL DSL once it's running . I am promised 3MB with no caps . PCLOS recognized the satellite on this unit - and I may just get an antenna for myself later to get a non-networked and personal hookup . We'll see what the provider - who lives three sites away from here - says later today . I return the 'puter to Renee and I have to goto town and pick up my new dining room set with a trailer and truck right now . See youse guys later . |

Anyhoo, back on topic. To install Google Earth you just need to open up a terminal window and navigate to your desktop by entering in: $cd ~/Desktop To install Google Earth, enter in the following: $sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin Then just follow the instructions. Remember the terminal commands are case sensitive. :) |
