You'll have to be much more specific in your question to receive any
kind of useful answer.

Please tell us exactly what you did.  For example, did you:

1: enable medibuntu and then install googleearth?
2: download a deb direct from medibuntu?
3: install googleearth-package?
4: download the Google Earth installer from Google?

I'm guessing that you've done option 3, successfully installed
googleearth-package, and can't work out the next step?  According to:

  http://www.go2linux.org/how-to-install-google-earth-debian-ubuntu

the right thing to do is:

  sudo make-googleearth-package

and then if that succeeds, to look in the current directory for a newly-
created .deb file and install it:

  sudo dpkg -i google*.deb

Please let us know which option you're trying to do and how far you've
got.  The more information, the better.  Cheers,
