Bugs

deb2tar.py was the hardest thing to do here, it should have a lot of bugs (probably) and might only work for this version.

@MiguelAO1029 audio support has been disabled at compile time, currently there is no way to enable it. Flash works and as many sites use Flash as fallback for MP3,MP4 it will work just fine.

i tried running this script on the latest Vanilla build (31-10-2012) but sadly enough it didn't work. am i doing something wrong myself (ID-10t error)? or is it something with the paths, or anything change?

seems that deb2tar.py isn't working, or the chrome-bin.deb is corrupt. when i execute the command: "python /opt/deb2tar.py /opt/chrome-bin.deb /opt/chrome.tar.lzma" it gives this output:
"source file: /opt/chrome-bin.deb

does this script work in last days build? I tryed to use alsaconf but the command wasn't found

@rikels

rikels commented Nov 26, 2012

for me the script didn't work because it uses python, which doesn't seem to be in Chromium OS. you can try if my script works, with all credits towards Dz0ny.

but Alsaconf should be working since it has nothing to do with this script. alsaconf is a "program" to configure your soundcard. are you running it as super user? (sudo alsaconf). are you running it in the therminal (not the alt+ctrl+t, but alt+ctrl+F2)

@rikels

rikels commented Dec 17, 2012

on the new builds your script is working again, python is back in the new hexxeh builds. but Alsaconf is removed from it.

I ran the script on this page http://chromeos-cr48.blogspot.in/2012/10/how-to-run-chrome-os-not-chromium-os-on.html after installing chromium. The script overwrites chromium with a genuine chrome image and on my samsung n210 everything worked out of the box including google voice/video. The only omission is ctrl alt F2 which probably means that is not running in developer mode.

ive got a problem with this... flash player says something along the lines of "couldnt load plugin" after doing the sudo su curl for the hexxeh builds i tried redoing it plenty of times please help me- Edit scratch that if anyone else has this problem just remove chromium os from ur hdd/sdd reinstall it and restart this script THANKS!

There's an issue with deb2tar.py extracting chrome-bin.deb (and hence the Flash plugin).

I hacked around to fix the deb2tar issue and updated the script to merge all files into a single one, getting plugins from the unstable branch : https://gist.github.com/shagr4th/6178203

flash, pdf and nativeclient are working fine on virtualbox and the latest arnold build...

Next steps would be to test and update the google talk plugin part, if necessary, and find out why the mp3 plugin is not working

Hello.
youtube was able to see safely, thanks to you.
Although I am a Japanese, in seeing the animation of the site of TED with a Japanese subtitle, I think that he would like to install 10.3 of flashplayer of a previous version.
I am glad if you develop the patch into which both of old and new flashplayer(s) are put.
since I am creating this text by the automatic translation function -- the case of strange English -- I am sorry!

I'm using the latest arnoldthebat image.
When using this scripts i get several directory error's.
For example "/opt/google/chrome/pepper/", the pepper directory does not exists on my build.

I noticed when I copied the files manually that the system does not create the pepper directory but that the copied files get's the name pepper. The system becomes unusable after this.

So maybe it's better to try to create all dirs in advance like the mozilla plugin dir.

Same happens with /usr/lib/chromo

For x64 Arnoldthebat builds, you can use my script : https://github.com/MrVaykadji/misc/tree/master/ChromiumOS/mp3-flash-pdf

Works perfectly on Camd64 from 12 may 2014.

Now that Chrome has dropped support for NPAPI, do you guys know of an alternative to get Java plugins working on Chrome? I was able to install Crouton and have the icedtea plugin installed and running from my chroot's copy of Chrome but not the one running from the Chrome OS. Would appreciate any tips in making that work on the main installation of Chrome also.
