Since the program demands high performance 3D graphics it challenges
poorly advancing driver within the current X server.
It worked fine for the ati driver for me until the driver was broken
in development.
I could not see that Google Earth is the problem. The screensavers
used to challenge the X server for performance and now are written
off. Maybe Ubuntu takes the challenges produced by X server errors
more seriously and develop better X server qualities.
Just my view,

It seemed that the state of your glxinfo | grep direct is important
to Google Earth. On my damaged F8 that request caused a reboot. On this
good F7 it works fine. I will try to load the software again since it is
still on my Desktop :-)
