Article Title: Chrome under Ubuntu !. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

A few days ago, Google officially announced that Google Chrome for Linux will adopt GTK + for development, and revealed that the relevant version will be released in May. There are three months left. Can you wait? If you are a Ubuntu user, congratulations! As long as the legendary third-party source is enabled, the latest development status of Chrome can be instantly tracked!


1. Enable the third-party source of Chrome

Therefore, enable the Firefox source as shown in:

If you plan to manually start, access: https://launchpad.net /~ Fta/+ archive/ppa

Ii. Install Chrome

After enabling and refreshing the source, you can install Chrome. Open the terminal and enter the following command to install Chrome.

Sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

Because it is a PPA source and Chrome is large, please be patient. After installation, you can find it in the application and Internet!

Menu item

Unfortunately, this version cannot even open basic web pages, just like Chrome for Mac.

Although Chrome for Linux is not available yet, it looks like it already exists.

With its continuous development, who can say that Chrome will not be available a month later?
