We apologize for the inconvenience, but Google Earth has crashed.
This is a bug in the program, and should never happen under normal
circumstances. A bug report and debugging data are now being written
to this text file:

/root/.googleearth/crashlogs/crashlog-EAFDAC7B.txt

This bug report will be sent to Google automatically next time you run
Google Earth. Its data, which contains no personal information, will help
us correct problems without bothering you further. If you would rather
this info not be transmitted, please delete the above file before running
the program again. If you want bug reports to NEVER be sent, remove the
above 'crashlogs' directory's read/write permissions.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions and help.

Cheers!

Do you get the same errors running it as a normal user?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Yes it does generate the same error, irrespective of the account used.

Thanks
