Chromium Browser 34.0.1847.137

[OscarTalks]

Hello Semme,

I took a look at that package. Because it is compiled in Ubuntu Precise (which has glibc 2.15) it won't run Dpup Wheezy (which has glibc 2.13) unfortunately. Hopefully the Debian devs will be releasing a Chromium 32 before long which will run in Wheezy and Precise.

This one does seem OK in Precise though. I did a few tweaks and gave it a quick test. I have named the package as chromium-32.0.1700.102-precise and uploaded it as .pet and .sfs to my "copy dot com" storage (where I have bags of space) in case anyone wants to try it out.

Users and testers please note.
Other versions by other posters are available. I haven't tested this one in Slacko. The one here by peebee may be more suitable for that:-

Thanks for the .pet !!
I was running V.30 and couldn't get rid of the "out of date" Flash message even though I had "--allow-outdated-plugins" on the command line.

chromium-32.0.1700.102-precise works fine in Precise 5.71 and no out of date plugin messages.

Can confirm chrome 32 doesn't work on Slacko 5.3.1, needs libstdc++ 3.4.15, where as Slacko 5.3.1 only has 3.4.14.

Error

Code: Select all

/opt/google/chrome/chrome: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by /opt/google/chrome/chrome)
/opt/google/chrome/chrome: /usr/lib/seamonkey/libnss3.so: version `NSS_3.14.3' not found (required by /opt/google/chrome/chrome)

Thanks Oscar, Chrome 33 pet with the two libs installed on Slacko 5.7 works on my Canon MX922. Have tried since Xmas to get CUPS driver for the Canon MX922 and unable to get it to work. Now I installed Chrome and it works fine with Google cloud printing and my home WiFi router on WPA2 TKIP.

I think for the many newer Cloud ready printers of all brands that do not have CUPS drivers, that Chrome or Chromium provides easy to install printing support out of the box for Puppy Linux when computer is connected to WiFi, but have to wonder how Google gets into users wallets !!!

Have Chrome 33 installed and working fine on HP laptop as well as ASUS Netbook. Also noticed that all activity on any of my computers is also visible from any other of my computers on my Google account, including my Android tablets, smartphone etc. And files can be easily shared or printed wireless from the different devices even when they are far from home on other carriers networks and on different operating systems, Puppy Linux, Windows, Android, Apple IPads, IPhones etc...

Also tested with Chromium, prints fine, but have to use settings to print because the print pull down menu does not list my MX922. Wonder since it works from settings how to get it to show on print pull down like Chrome does.

Thanks again for the latest Puppy Chrome and Chromium !!!

Chromium Waterfall works around on Newest Slacko64 (64bit,glibc 2.15) and Slacko (August 13 as Stable and March 14 as Beta)/Precise 5.7.1 (32bit,glibc 2.15)

Thanks for your efforts.

I downloaded the 3 pets from the first page including chromium-34.0.1847.137-i386.pet and installed them and it all works great on Slacko 5.7.0

Many thanks!

I've installed this and it's in my menu but it won't launch. Using Slacko 5.7.0

[Semme]

Devil's in the details. Look @ Bob's post three above yours.

[ribblle]

I installed all 3 pets.

Hello ribblle,

With Slacko you must make sure you also install the 2 libs in the first post of this thread. Have you definitely done that? If so, open a terminal and type chromium and press enter and let us know what output it gives you. I still run this Chromium in Slacko 5.7 and it does work fine for me.

[ribblle]

I get: /usr/bin/chromium: line 2: /usr/lib/Chromium/chromium-wrapper: Success. I already unpacked the latest chrome tarball (and couldn't tell what to do next) before installing the pet, so that might be it.

[Semme]

When you say you unpacked it, what did you do? Where'd you put it?

Most peeps aren't that productive when they multi-task. So, slow down..

[ribblle]

It's in mnt/home. Goddamn even my browser refresh don't work.

[Semme]

Hold on.. WHICH file did you unpack, Oscar's? Did it dwnld with an extension other than pet?

[ribblle]

Before finding this thread, i tried downloading from the chrome website. I unpacked the tarball it gave me to mnt/home. I couldn't figure out how to run/build/compile it, so i gave up and found this thread. I separately installed all the pets in OP including chromium.

[Semme]

You grabbed which item from Oscar's repo, the pet or sfs? If the former, go into package manager and uninstall it, then post back.

[ribblle]

I uninstalled the pet.
