I have installed Google Earth Pro 7.3.0.3830 (64-bit) on my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

When I launch Google Earth Pro, map is shown in very small window. I have un-installed and re-installed but the problem is as it is.map is on left upper corner

Happened to me too, Its a graphics driver problem. It does not work on X.org nouveau graphics driver. More on it here. So you can uninstall the present version 7.3 and install 7.1 version from here.

I have nouveau graphics driver and Google Earth Pro 7.3.2.5776 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

You can try to use LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE environment variable like this:

LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 /opt/google/earth/pro/googleearth

But this is just for a little look, because it is terribly slow.

It got this problem on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I have a NVidia Graphic Card. I solved the issue like this.

To update the NVidia driver, execute in a terminal :

$ sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

After, reboot. It worked for me.
