I'm not at all surprised that their troubleshooting steps have different instructions for people using different operating systems. That seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do. http://earth.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=20717

Even that link?

I haven't tried changing my user agent, but I'm on Ubuntu right now and the linked "Google Earth Server Test" doesn't work for me.

Of course, that's not quite the same as Google Earth not working on Linux...

No, I don't know what the link points to, I was responding to the title.
