ROFL. Well, if it's available for my distro:
arrakis ~ #
arrakis ~ # eix googleearth
[U] x11-misc/googleearth
Available versions: 4.2.198.2451!m
Installed versions: 4!m(13:47:44 08/26/07)
Homepage: http://earth.google.com/
Description: A 3D interface to the planet
arrakis ~ #
then it's almost certainly available for all "major" main-stream
distros. Hasn't this distro gone out of its way to install various apps
from google?
So, will google earth work fine on the Vista version of this system,
given that the Vista version comes with more RAM? If it does, then I
would certainly expect that Vista could be replaced with a main-stream
distro and google earth would work fine.
