Thumbs down Google Earth 64 bit

I really don't why google pretend to have a 64 bit Fedora package when it relies on 32 bit libraries. Just tried to install again on F14.
First run : /usr/bin/google-earth: ./googleearth-bin: /lib/ld-lsb.so.3: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory.
So I install the redhat-lsb.i686 package
Second run : ./googleearth-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libfontconfig.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I install the 32 bit fontconfig package
Third run : ./googleearth-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

At this point I give up

Re: Google Earth 64 bit

I installed autoplus ( http://www.dnmouse.org/autoten/ ), and it did Googleearth perfectly, although in F16.

Re: Google Earth 64 bit

Hello barf

I had exactly the same problem last evening.

I found that it could be fixed by:

Code:
yum install redhat-lsb.i686 redhat-lsb-graphics.i686 redhat-lsb-printing.i686
That of course bought in a whole load of extra packages.

Needed zenity as well to give a dialog-box upon the autoplus-command.

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

Now i have GoogleEarth installed properly through Autoplus, but after starting GE i get no imaginary just a black screen.
Do i need more 32-bit-packages, or???

When starting from console no error-messages.

Try this if you are using the nvidia driver

Code:
su
yum install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
