I have the same crash.
Fixed it by removing ~/.drirc
I just received the same error: bill@laptop ~/.googleearth/crashlogs $ cat crashlog-50d600f8.txt Major Version 6 Minor Version 0 Build Number 0003 Build Date May 17 2011 Build Time 00:40:40 OS Type 3 OS Major Version 3 OS Minor Version 6 OS Build Version 11 OS Patch Version 0 Crash Signal 11 Crash Time 1356202232 Up Time 0.545988 The rest of the message was similar to rainer's. Removing ~/.drirc as Sergey 'L29Ah' Alirzaev did solved it.
