google-earth stable no pictures

redsearch · 2015-11-20 01:50:34

I have fresh install of 64bit RC1. (Added i386 architecture).

Installed google-earth from Google's website. It works, but when you click on a picture, the picture box is empty.

Have you tried running it from the commandline? Any errors?

There was always an issue with `ia32libs`, and a search shows that still seems to be the case.

Try building it without that dependency? There is a walkthrough here:

I can try that link and see if it works probably tomorrow or this weekend.

Did you install GE with sudo? From the buntu forums:

If the installer was started with sudo, googleearth will be started as root, but still using the home folder of the normal user (who started sudo). Thus Google Earth will place its configuration files into the user's home folders, but with root as the owner. The normal user cannot use Google Earth, because the settings cannot be saved. The display will not contain a globe, but only a black space and some settings will be grayed out. To fix this problem, delete the Google Earth configuration directory:
sudo rm -Rf .config/Google .googleearth

...and shouldn't the command be `googlearth` not `google-earth`?

I installed google-earth 64bit from Google's DL. I pictures work fine, but I also receive these messages:

A google search for "google earth linux no urlrequestcontext for ocsp handler" brings this fix as the first hit:

Google Earth Linux has problems with the Qt libraries bundled with the package..... Here is a quick version of that fix with a couple of extra things necessary for Debian 8.....

I guess you didn't see that when you were searching for an answer?

PS Please use [ code ] tags for terminal output, not [ quote ] tags

I did not search for the answer myself and I will continue to ask questions for items that may be readily available by simple Google searches.

Do you consider terminal output as code? Why?

Because text between code tags is shown in a fixed width font (monospace) to keep output formatting in place. It also stands out visually from rest of the text.
