I found this discussion. http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2148211.html

They say:

You can try

gksudo -k -u root /opt/google/earth/free/google-earth %f

or

  1. Edit sudoers file:

gksudo gedit /etc/sudoers

-add this line:

yourusername ALL= NOPASSWD: /path/to/the/command

remplace /path/to/the/command with /opt/google/earth/free/google-earth

  1. Run your app in launcher or terminal with:

sudo google-earth
