How to make Google Earth stable in Ubuntu 14.04.2 64 bit?

  • 772

Does Google Earth run stable in Ubuntu 14.04.2 64 bit at your system? I have Ubuntu 14.04.2 64 bit and Google Earth 64 bit runs unstable. It will not start properly. The start screen appears, but once the globe comes into view, the program stops and disappears from the screen. After repeatedly starting the program, it launches sometimes and the program comes with the globe and it is ready for use. But once I have typed a place to search and click on it, the program stops and disappears from the screen again. Who has Google Earth working stable in Ubuntu 14.04.2 64-bit? And did you have to do something special to make it run stable?

I downloaded the 64-bits .deb (for Debian/Ubuntu) from the site: https://www.google.nl/intl/nl/earth/download/ge/agree.html

  1. I had the same problem, please follow my advice below:

    1. disable network access
    2. the application will now open successfully
    3. enable your network access and the program should now operate correctly.

    You will need to repeat this each time you open the application.
