Dear Google Chrome Linux fans, here is a small tutorial on how to install Google Chrome on your latest Fedora operating system. Thanks Sijo, for sharing this with me.
First step:
Create a file /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo with the contents below
That should install google chrome on your computer. I also found a video tutorial showing how to do this, in somewhat similar manner.
The last fedora version that I used was FC10, one year back. I changed to Ubuntu after that just for a change, Fedora is also a great linux distribution for those who wanted to do some serious Linux computing !
Google Chrome fans love the design and layout of their lovely browser. So, when modifications are done on this design, it gets noticed. Are they making a significant change to Google Chrome’s Design ? Let’s check it out.
I was testing the new Dev version, which was updated today. Then, I found a black color background where we have “close” and “minimize” etc. Have a look here, ( click for larger image )
Do you think it’s kinda cool ? hmm I don’t you yet … please drop me comments and let me know if you like this new design.
Google has identified  a major security risk to the browser and also added a security update for the browser. Here is more info from Google Chrome’s blog
Severity: Critical. An attacker might be able to run code with the privileges of the logged on user.
If you are using Google Chrome now, what you need to do, is check if your Google Chrome installation is latest. Â I have explained how to do this here The version should show “Â 1.0.154.64″ for stable version users. If this is not the current version of your browser, you will see an “upgrade” link next to it, click it, and then restart the browser when upgrade is done.
Along with this new security patch, this release also contains
A new notification at startup that makes it easier to set Google Chrome as the default browser. If you don’t want Google Chrome to be the default browser, you can click ‘Don’t ask again’.
A new version of Gears (0.5.16.0)
Most of you will have the latest version installed, automatically. Surprised ? What Google
