Until recently, the “unofficial” method for installing Brave on Linux would not work on a Chrome OS device but recent updates have changed all of that. If you clicked on this article, you likely are already familiar with Brave and want to know how to install it on a Chromebook. That’s all fine and well but one browser that is known far and wide among the tech-savvy and privacy-focused is the Chromium-based Brave Browser. You can even install the Gnome Software Center and install a variety of browsers directly from there if you want to go that route. I’ve tested a few browsers built more specifically for Linux and the majority of them work as well as you’d expect. More specifically, the Crostini project that brought Linux apps to Chrome OS. The only problem there is that you’re now using a mobile browser on a desktop and who wants that? So, we turn to Linux. One option for a second browser is to try out something from the Play Store. Thankfully, there are curious people out there that like to ask me questions that lead me to figure out new and inventive ways to do cool stuff on Chrome OS. Because of the nature of Chrome OS, you’re out of luck if you want to install a secondary browser directly onto the main operating system. However, as the Chrome OS ecosystem continues to expand, more and more users are moving to the platform and some of them may want other options. Don't forget to make your bash-scripts executable.īut frankly, I'd recommend that you use Mike Walsh's Ungoogled-Chromium, viewtopic.php?p=11080#p11080 which, unlike Brave, doesn't just steer you away from advertisers the publisher doesn't like to those which it does like or his Iron, viewtopic.If you’re using a Chromebook, chances are high that you’re perfectly comfortable using the Chrome browser as your default portal to the internet. Run-as-spot "$HERE/chrome" -user-data-dir=$HERE/spot/.config/google-chrome -disable-infobars you substitute 'brave' -without the quotes- for 'Chrome' or 'google-chrome' in the above you may be able to use the brave portable under fossa and/or buster. # Wrapper-script to launch Google Chrome browser - Mike Walsh © Jan 2020 (with thanks to Fredx181.) "$HERE/chrome/chrome-pup_NL" within the Chrome folder is the chrome-pup_LN bash script, which reads: # Launcher for 'portable' Google Chrome browser The alternate wrappers come in to parts: Outside of the 'chrome/or what-have-you' folder is a bash-script named LAUNCH_NL (i.e., no libs) which reads:
He has since published newer portables which contain alternate 'wrappers' so that they could be used either with fossa or Buster, as well as older puppies.
But I don't think it will run OOTB under fossapup for the same reason that versions of other Chromium-Clones wouldn't run: it's 'builtin' libs are older than those fossapup uses. Mike Walsh published a portable back in July, viewtopic.php?p=859#p859.
