Google Chrome 21 for Slacko
(Released JUL 31)

http://diddywahdiddy.net/Puppy500/google_chrome-21-slacko.pet

This has Flashplayer built-in so no need to add it. This makes Chrome run in root by specifying the userdir as recommended by Chrome developers.

The version for Lucid will be posted in the Lucid 5.2.8.005 thread (as there are differences between the versions). This version for Slacko has so far been tested in Slacko with the Checkmate LXDE desktop.

Running in, coincidentally enough, jejy69's GNOME Puppy 533. Works pretty good, except...

...it inherited keybindings (I think that's the right term) from Seamonkey or something. All I know is... backspace doesn't go back and shift+backspace doesn't go forward and it's driving me absolutely CRAZY.

Is there a fix for this somewhere...?

Bumping this. How do I change the keybindings here? It's *really* irritating.

...er, since Playdayz is taking a vacation (per post in another thread), can anyone *else* help?

What does happen when you press Backspace or Shift+Backspace? They've always done what they were supposed to do in SeaMonkey for me.

Glad to get a response! Thank you, flash.

What happens? Nothing. I remembered that seamonkey worked with Alt+LeftArrow for back and Alt+something else for forward (I want to say Alt+Shift+LeftArrow, but I'm not certain), and those keybindings do work. But habit demands Bksp for back and Shift+Bksp for forward, and when those don't work and I have to think about it, I get rather annoyed.

I'm just a bit particular about which keys do what, I guess.

Hey Starhawk

I tried this in regular Slacko 5.3.3, hope it'll work for you too.

The solution is to install "Backspace As Back/Forward for Linux" extension.
Settings -> Extensions -> 'Browse the gallery' link -> (find the above extension) -> Add to Chrome

Additionaly you need to mark "Activate Backspace for navigation in history object" box (it's in the extension options).

HTH Smile

Greetings!

Thanks! I'll try that out.

Off-topic: SFR, what is that latin in your sig? I used to know a little latin, but it's left me now Sad
