What works
nothing
What does not
Can't install (when I try and install, I get a screen saying to close any running programs [done], empty my installation directory [I don't know where that is], and check my interenet connection [done]. It's an error code -6005.). Obviously, I can't test anything else as it won't install.

Additional Comments
I downloaded and installed wine today from the wine site. I am testing on a computer running Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger).
This howto is _really_ old. Installs and runs out of the box for in wine 1.1.22.
This howto is written for a complete fresh install of Google Earth in a freshly created .wine directory:
1. Download GoogleEarth and install (just click OK in the messagebox about the missing psapi.dll)
2. Copy the font Arial.TTF into ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts (copy it for example from a windows partition)
Thanks Jeremy Azevedo/Tim Harper for the following marvelous tip :
3. a) Open the file ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Google/Google\
Earth/kvw/default_lt.kvw
b) Take out the word "RenderFrame" (line ~44) and take out the word "NavigationFrame" (line ~59)
c). Save the file
4. Set wineversion to Windows XP using winecfg
5. Run GoogleEarth by
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="usp10,msvcrt=n" wine "c:\Program Files\Google\Google Earth\GoogleEarth.exe" (Google Earth comes with it's own usp10.dl and msvcrt, so no need to download/copy this)
6. Resize the little Earth window to it's correct size and drag it to its correct position. It should look something like:
