Google Chrome comes to Linux, though as a test version for now. Yes now you can use Chrome on Linux but there’s a lot to cover up, as this version of the browser is pretty raw at the moment. The news circulated as a programmer, Dan Kegel, posted a note to the Chromium developers mailing list which said:
"Dude, Gmail works in the test shell on Linux!"
The “test shell” is being used for testing and integration with WebKit, and is a first step of porting Chromium to a new platform, as explained by Aaron Boodman, from Chrome and Gears.
I hesitate to use even upgraded versions of Chrome, since my last experience using it (first version) left my computer compromised; have they fixed the security issues beyond all doubt?
