I'm running GoogleEarth on Jaunty with no problems so far.

Already had a previous version running on 8.10 i386.

Didn't bother to remove [users]/.googleearth

My /home directory is shared between the 32 and 64 installs.

Downloaded the last version from Google:

          googleearth_5.0.11337.1968+0.5.4.1-1_amd64.deb

loaded googleearth-package 0.5.4.1 from Synaptic.

         Ran googleearth-package in the g*.deb directory

Against all odds it worked.
