Bug Description

I installed Google Earth using Synaptic. It now shows Google Earth as being installed but I can't find an icon in the applications menu or on the desktop to click on to launch it. Have I missed a step?

Sometimes menu items can be quite tucked away in the menus. Try going up to the top taskbar and click on

Applications - Accessories - Terminal

and onto the command-line type

googleearth

Sometimes starting an application/program from the command-line can be easier than hunting through menus. Also you might try right-clicking the Applications menu to see if the Google Earth box just hasnt been ticked. This would give you the chance to re-arrange your menu's too but i would keep them as standard as possible in the early days.

I just want to be sure that you have already worked through the Medibuntu worksheet before installing GoogleEarth

Good luck and regards from
