Looks like you're installing the binary from the google website. It's
probably easier/better to get it from a repository.

The Medibuntu repository has googleearth (amongst lots of other stuff
like skype and w32codecs)..

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu

Just follow the instructions there and then install the "googleearth" package.

Cheers,
Al.
