Lemme guess... you're running prelink, right? There's something about the code in GoogleEarth that doesn't play well with prelink... especially after upgrading libraries. Try this: 1- turn off (or remove) prelink 2- remove GoogleEarth and re-install 3- do an upgrade that includes libraries likely to be used by GE Think you'll find that without prelink messing about in your bin and lib directories, that GoogleEarth survives an upgrade. You can pretty much prove that prelink is the culprit here by doing the above 3 steps and then: 4- reinstall prelink 5- do another upgrade of some kind that includes libraries likely to be used by GE 6- leave the machine up for 48 hours so prelink can do it's stuff 7- invoke GoogleEarth Hope this helps, -S
