Chrome (again) in Ubuntu 8.04 via wine.
Please bear with me, I am trying to get chrome usable in my desktop pc (Ubuntu 8.04), using this guide. But I got stucked when trying to install winetricks.
sicksand@sicksand-desktop:~$ cd /usr/sbin
sicksand@sicksand-desktop:/usr/sbin$ winetricks
-bash: /usr/sbin/winetricks: Permission denied
sicksand@sicksand-desktop:/usr/sbin$ sudo winetricks flash
sudo: winetricks: command not found
Luckily , find the workaround
cd /where/you/downloaded/the/script
chmod +x winetricks
./winetricks
Changing the exec file from the dekstop shortcut will do the trick
Exec=env WINEPREFIX=”/home/sicksand/.wine” wine “C:\windows\profiles\sicksand\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” —new-http —in-process-plugins
Here are the screenshots…
