I know for some linux users including myself, I couldn't wait for a Linux version of both Picasa 2 and Google Earth to come to the linux platform. I have used Picasa 2 and quite surprising it tends to be reliable and pretty stable.

Now I need to try Google Earth,

have any of you tried this apps that are now availabe on the linux platform

@ my computer it is really stable. It's just the same as working with it on windows.(My dad's computer has windows) I really reccomend it! Hopefully it will work again with your computer Sphere! I've had a lot of nice hours thanks to google earth now, and picasa,, it's just picasa. But don't let it scan trough your computer!

Well... I kinda figured the problem... just so all others know:

The ATI driver still sucks a lot!

Yes I have an ATI card, and the ATI driver just crashes when I run google software...

After making it an KDE app iso an KDE, it works... sorta
