I hadn't looked at the out-of-the-box functionality of the mapagent KML
operations, but yes, it looks like quite a bit is broken for Google Earth 5.
I had some similar problems with my custom MGOS / Google Earth application
(available on the MGOS Demo Sites page) which I just debugged this week.
There is a bug in GE 5 where network links do not auto refresh when using
onStop viewrefreshmode.  Google has acknowledged this bug.  To work-around
it (for whatever reason this works), the following needs to be in the
network link definition:
 
How it normally would be generated through the mapagent:
 
<viewRefreshMode>onStop</viewRefreshMode>
<viewRefreshTime>1</viewRefreshTime>
 
How it needs to be generated to work with GE 5:
 
<refreshMode>onInterval</refreshMode>
<refreshinterval>9999</refreshinterval>
<viewRefreshMode>onStop</viewRefreshMode>
<viewRefreshTime>1</viewRefreshTime>
 
I will also add this information as a new Trac ticket.  I do not think this
is the only problem with the mapagent KML and GE 5, however.  It looks like
there's other things going on but I have not dug into them.

But the kml generated by Mapguide does not work on recent Google Earth
versions (more a GE problem but something Mapguide could make work anyway) -
very frustrating for using Mapguide as is.

Sorry I may have spoken to soon hear because I am currently working on it.
Not sure of your requirements but you can also export layers to KML and
overlay onto google earth. Or use OpenLayers to overlay the two.

It is only possible in Fusion2.   I started testing this week and there were
some issues (primarily with the Coordinate system not being available and
issues setting the extents.   I believe Jason has resolved both of these
though and I plan on testing later today.   Once we have it tested and
working correctly, I will Post the steps and Jason's fixes. 
 
Thanks,
