only in respect that it gives a different md5sum result;

$ sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin
Verifying archive integrity...Error in MD5 checksums:
09923ec56a4b8ccbbe77f4fc280e3490 is different from 7e2ee64995f3a4b65373ce81d235cd00

which i should have mentioned in 1st post. my bad. :/

possibly i should have added a question of;

'has anyone successfully installed latest version of google earth?'.

and that i ran into checksum problems with previous versions.

thank you for reply.

if you have other suggestions, please address to list only. i filter
emails and replies to me with tech support list as 'cc:' end up in my
'personal' email folder, which i am slow about checking. thanks.
