首先，從google官方下載簡體中文版的google earth
打開Fedora 14終端，切換到root用戶
[hang@localhost 下載]$ su root
好，我們先來看看google earth的安裝幫助

[root@localhost 下載]# chmod 777 GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[root@localhost 下載]# GoogleEarthLinux.bin --help
Makeself version 2.1.5
1) Getting help or info about ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin :
./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --help Print this message
./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --info Print embedded info : title, default target directory, embedded script ...
./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --lsm Print embedded lsm entry (or no LSM)
./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --list Print the list of files in the archive
./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --check Checks integrity of the archive
2) Running ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin :
./GoogleEarthLinux.bin [options] [--] [additional arguments to embedded script]
with following options (in that order)
--confirm Ask before running embedded script
--noexec Do not run embedded script
--keep Do not erase target directory after running
the embedded script
--nox11 Do not spawn an xterm
--nochown Do not give the extracted files to the current user
--target NewDirectory Extract in NewDirectory
--tar arg1 [arg2 ...] Access the contents of the archive through the tar command
-- Following arguments will be passed to the embedded script
接下來，根據安裝幫助上的指示，www.linuxidc.com 我們可以運行GoogleEarthLinux.bin把安裝程序解壓到指定的臨時文件夾裡，
在這裡我把它指定解壓到/tmp/google-earth目錄下。
[root@localhost 下載]# mkdir /tmp/google-earth
[root@localhost 下載]# GoogleEarthLinux.bin --target /tmp/google-earth
Creating directory /tmp/google-earth
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing Google Earth for GNU/Linux 6.0.1.2032.............................................................................................
This version of Google Earth requires LSB 4.0 support which you
do not seem to have.
./setup.sh: line 285: [: missing `]'
/bin/su: 用戶yum install RedHat-lsb 不存在
setup.data/setup.xml:1: parser error : Document is empty
^
setup.data/setup.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
^
./setup.sh: line 158: 3516 段錯誤 (core dumped) "$setup" "$@"
解壓後它自動運行安裝程序並出現了錯誤提示，說我沒有安裝LSB。
LSB其實我已經安裝過啦，並且是最新版本，所以暫時不用管它
[root@localhost 下載]# yum install redhat-lsb
已加載插件：langpacks, presto

設置安裝進程
包 redhat-lsb-4.0-5.fc14.i686 已安裝並且是最新版本
無須任何處理
接下來我們切換到/tmp/google-earth/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86目錄下
用setup.gtk把setup.gtk2覆蓋掉
[root@localhost 下載]# cd /tmp/google-earth/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86
[root@localhost x86]# mv setup.gtk setup.gtk2
mv：是否覆蓋"setup.gtk2"？ y
