Google Earth


Hello,

Had anybody succeed with installation of Google Earth with Wine or WineX?

Just interesting...
According to Google they are planning Max OS X version... I hope someday Linux version also will be availible.

Try maps.google.com.As far as I've seen the maps (resolution and stuff) are the same, the program has more functions, that's it.

Google Maps is nice but Google Earth looks nicer

I'll add that I tried to get it working in wine and cedega with no success. (This was on pretty new hardware and with a recent version of wine.)
