 runs on linux. DigiKam has an option for uploading gps tracks, but I 
 really want the map. Any suggestions?
 

Geotag[1] seems to cover the features you need. Not sure if Ubuntu 
already has a package for it or not.

If you're using a newish version of DigiKam IIRC 0.9.5 or newer, you can use 
the Geolocation tools that are located in the Image menu. If you click on 
'Edit Coordinates' it should allow you to pick a point on the Google Map that 
appears in the window.

Ah! Had looked at digikam, but missed that option. Thanks very much for 
the tip, problem solved:)
