You can get the development linux version in a deb file directly from Google.

It's way better than Firefox.Main system: Dell Studio XPS 8100 with Kubuntu 10.04<br />Main system: Dell Inspiron 1720 with Ubuntu 10.04<br />Second system: Acer Aspire 1500 with Ubuntu 10.04<br />Third system: Dell Dimension Desktop with Kubuntu 10.04 and Windows Vista<br />Fourth system: Dell Inspiron with Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows Vista

Re: Chrome browser? Any PPA ? And Flash plugin?
Anyone here got flash to work in chromium? i tried making a softlink to libflashplayer.so but to no avail? Do i need adobe flash installed or will the flashplugin that came with kubuntu suffice?
ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 48 2009-08-12 11:34 libflashplayer.so -> /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18000 2009-08-11 01:36 libnpapi_layout_test_plugin.so

Re: Chrome browser? Any PPA ? And Flash plugin?
Works in mine. Here is how I did it. This is far Google Chrome. If you are using chromium-browser from the ppa, read replies below this one.
Code:mkdir /opt/google/chrome/plugins/
Code:cd /opt/google/chrome/plugins/
Code:sudo ln -s /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --enable-plugins %U
Flash is the only plugin I've tried so far. I will add some other plugins from my Firefox plugins later to see if they work.

Then modify the command to start the program to:
/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --enable-plugins %U
i have /usr/bin/chromium-browser

Re: Chrome browser? Any PPA ? And Flash/Java plugin?
yes, my instructions are for Google Chrome, but you can easily modify them for chromium browse. The command is in /usr/bin and the files are in /usr/lib/chromium-browser. I have a very busy day today, if I get time later I will try to install Java and see if it works.

Re: Chrome browser? Any PPA ? And Flash/Java plugin?
Hello
I'm starting to get crazy with this...
Well, I have done the commands Detonate said, but to create the folders I had to create them with kdesudo dolphin. After that:
nuno@Nuno-Linux:/opt/google/chrome/plugins$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
nuno@Nuno-Linux:/opt/google/chrome/plugins$ /usr/bin/chromium-browser --enable-plugins %U
(chromium-browser:4234): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libqtcurve.so: classe ELF errada: ELFCLASS64
Created new window in existing browser session.
nuno@Nuno-Linux:/opt/google/chrome/plugins$ /usr/bin/chromium-browser --enable-plugins %U
(chromium-browser:4288): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libqtcurve.so: classe ELF errada: ELFCLASS64

nuno@Nuno-Linux:/opt/google/chrome/plugins$
And still no flash plugin...
marcopl, did it work in FF too??
One other thing that could help: I'm using 64bits version..

Re: Chrome browser? Any PPA ? And Flash/Java plugin?
You don't have to use the mkdir command with chromium-browser, the plugins directory is already there. You only have to do that with Google Chrome.
To install the plugin in chromium-browser, the command should be:
cd /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
Then do:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
Then start the browser with the command;
/usr/bin/chromium-browser --enable-plugins
