That's a bit like asking how to turn off the burglar alarm so break-ins won't be 
so noisy. The correct question is how to set attributes correctly so google 
earth will run, and the answer may be in the SElinux report, as it often is. 
Real the report and see if it gives you a command to run which solves the problem.
