Google Chrome The Linux Way, Sort Of
September 15th, 2008 | Category: Linux, Ubuntu
Earlier this month Google released its web browser, Chrome. Unfortunately for Mac OS X and Linux users, the beta release is only available for Windows. Within a short period time intrepid Linux users had already gotten it up and running under Wine. Better yet, the nice folks over at CodeWeavers took it one step further and ported the browser to Mac OS X and Linux before Google could. However, it should be noted that the developers do not recommend using Chromium as your full time browser.
Also, the stock icon isn’t very big. Here’s a larger version I made up if you’re using Avant Window Navigator or another dock type program.
