Now that precise is Running, another problem rears its head.
I have downloaded Google Earth. (The .deb version) and although Precise is telling me it has indeed downloaded and resides in My Documents, I can't open it.
I did get a message saying that it wasn't in the menu, and that this was being sorted.
So, how do I use Google Earth from Precise ?

How to use Google Earth from Precise?
Re: Using Google Earth from Precise.
Look in /usr/share/applications for the startup command. The line will start with something like "exec". I'm not sure, if it will work on precise though but if you are using precise consider using jrb's precise light because it is more up to date.coldmonday wrote:Now that precise is Running, another problem rears it's head.

If downloading the .deb from google you need to make sure it is a 32bit version and the latest ones are only 64bit I believe. Also they will probably not work without a few tweaks.
I do have some which are adapted for Puppy here:-

The 7.0.3.8542 version is lighter than the later ones. They may also work but are likely to be slower.
