How to install Google Chrome in Ubuntu Linux (Guide)

Note: This blog entry is an instruction guide for my own records.  The text was taken practically verbatim from this UbuntuGeek.com article.  Also, please note that Chrome on Linux does not support plugins or flash video content!

There are lots of resources available for using Chrome on Linux via WINE.  But what if you want to run it natively?  Google Chrome is based on the open source Chromium project.  Here are instructions for installing Chromium on your Ubuntu Linux computer:

First you need to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Add one of the following

For ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) Users add the following two lines
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

For ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) Users add the following two lines
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Save and exit the file

Add the Google key:
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xfbef0d696de1c72ba5a835fe5a9bf3bb4e5e17b5

Update
sudo apt-get update

Install Chromium
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

You're set!  Now just launch from the Applications > Internet > Chromium Web Browser menu.  Note that you can also install by downloading the .deb package from the Chromium Dev Channel.  As stated, this will automatically add Google's repositories to your machine.
