Running GoogleEarth on Suse with Wine

Google Earth was created to put satellite
imagery and other geographic information right on the (Windows) desktop. Unfortunately
no Linux version is available jet. In the meantime the Linux Community was
trying to get Google Earth running on a Linux Desktop using Wine. This Tutorial
will explain how to install and run it. To be honest, it is very easy to
install and to run it, but you have to live with some deficiencies:
You have to disable menus (using Ctrl+1 and Ctrl+2). It is possible to use the
menus on the top, if you know where they are. The fonts are crazy. It seems
that they are too far apart for the status bar and map labels. So I
recommend disabling the status bar as well.
