Hi all,
I give up with the internet trawling - can anyone please let me know how I can install Chromium on Ubuntu Mate 15.10 on a Raspberry pi 2. I install it on RASPBIAN JESSIE, but can’t seem to do the same thing on MATE.
Step by step guide will go down very well.
Many thanks…
Hi,
open a terminal and type (copy & paste) the following command to install it and a plugin:
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser pepperflashplugin-nonfreeThat’s great, many thanks for your quick reply. I will give it ago tomorrow.
Hi - just to let you know that
sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
does not work - app is not available.
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
works fine.
Is there another way to install pepper flash plugin ?
Many thanks…
Hi,
check your software sources settings and make sure that the "Canonical" repo is active (Other Software), refresh when it is and try again!.
If it still won't install, grab a package from here, Ubuntu 15.04 will do!:
Ok, Many thanks for the very fast reply. I wont be able to check this out for a few days, but I will post back and let you know how I go on.
Thanks again…
I forgot to mention this package too:
sudo apt-get install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash
PPAPI-host NPAPI-plugin adapter for pepperflash
The main goal of the project is to get PPAPI (Chrome) plugins
working in Firefox (and any other web-browser supporting NPAPI plugins).
It implements a wrapper which behaves like browser to PPAPI plugin and implements NPAPI plugin interface for browser to use.
This particular implementation doesn’t implement any sandboxing, which means any malicious code can break through plugin security as there are no additional barriers. This is the same level of security as NPAPI Flash have.
Flash plugin for Linux provided by adobe stopped at version 11.2; for chrome/chromium users there is pepperflash plugin but it’s not supported by firefox/iceweasel/other browsers.
This package allows one to use the Pepper Flash plugin from Chrome in NPAPI web browsers.
