Use this Bash script to get a list with all temporarily saved Flash videos:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
for flashpid in $(pgrep -f flashplayer.so); do
cd "/proc/$flashpid/fd"
for video in $(file * | grep '/tmp/Flash' | sed 's/\(^[0-9]*\).*/\1/g'); do
echo "/proc/$flashpid/fd/$video"
done
done
Mark the script as executable and run, for example ...

I've successfully extracted the Fedora/OpenSUSE RPM into my home directory and ran chrome from there. You simply need to make sure that the symlinks for the libraries are all there. This assumes that the libraries area already installed, and $HOME/bin is in my $PATH.
I just ran:
mkdir ~/chrome; cd ~/chrome
rpm2cpio ...

Most browsers enable you to get a warning if you have HTTP content on an HTTPS page. This can be very annoying if you visit sites that mix HTTP content on their HTTPS pages. From your question it appears Wikipedia is one of those. When properly set, Firefox warns me visiting this page.
A web server is not required to offer HTTPS. Many sites do not ...

It indicates that chromium may be passed a list of URLs on its command line. See the Exec key of the Desktop Entry Specification for a description of the available codes and what they mean.

1. Is ACCEPT_KEYWORDS='amd64 ~amd64 ~amd64-linux' a valid configuration?
From man make.conf:
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS = [space delimited list of KEYWORDS]
So ACCEPT_KEYWORDS='amd64 ~amd64 ~amd64-linux' is a valid combination.
2. What about ~amd64-linux?
amd64-linux is a Prefix thing. I don't know much about Prefix, but I can see amd64-linux in the list of ...

Yes, it does use the linux kernel.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome_OS
Which the kernel is what "linux" is (an OS kernel), hence the OS we all know and love is sometimes more properly called "GNU/Linux". The "GNU" part is the fundamentals of the userspace (as opposed to kernelspace) and without that, there is no guarantee at all about what ...

give the installation via terminal a try:
open terminal
run the command: sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
alternatively you can add the chromium repository via commandline to your sources like this and install it from there:
open terminal
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chromium-daily/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

Perhaps wmctrl could be of some assistance. You could use the -c option that closes a window gracefully:
wmctrl -c chrome
The string chrome is matched against the window titles. Note that the window might not close if some message pops-up (e.g. when you have multiple tabs open).

The Pentadactyl and Vimperator addons for Firefox allow vim-like editing in text areas by pressing ctrl+t; I think there is also an option to turn it on permanenly. There is also It's All Text! that will actually launch an editor for you.
As far as Chrome goes, it's not as easy, as the API is quite limited. They require you to run a server on your system. ...

Chrome has been in OpenBSD's ports tree since at least OpenBSD 4.8.
$ sudo pkg_add chromium
Should do the trick, assuming your PKG_PATH environment variable is properly set.
For more information on ports/packages, see here: OpenBSD Packages and Ports System

You'll want to use yum, which is the Redhat command-line package manager.
In this case, lsb and xdg-utils refers to rpm packages, which you can find in the Centos repos by typing yum search <pkg_name>. If you want detailed information about a package, you can use yum info <pkg_name>. Once you find the packages that you need in the repos, you can ...

For some reason, web browser like to make the monospace font smaller than other text, which can make code harder to read. There are two ways to handle this in Chrome.
Option 1: Customize Font Settings
Click the wrench icon.
Select "Preferences"
Select "Under the Hood"
Under "Web Content" you can "Customize Fonts..." -- you'll want to change the ...

In my experience the proprietary linux driver that nvidia offers can cause terrible performance issues with certain cards (especially older ones). The person that resolved their problem by reverting their driver to an older version is a good demonstration of the nvidia driver's regression problems.
I'd recommend trying the open source nvidia driver known as ...

You may want to take a look at the Uzbl browser.
It's a minimalist web browser based on webkit (the layout engine used by Chrome/Chromium). According to the definition, it's a collection of "web interface tools which adhere to the unix philosophy".
It comes in 3 flavors:
uzbl-core
uzbl-browser
uzbl-tabbed
The latter 2 are finished products and ...

It's standard to print the Unicode replacement character in place of a character which does not exist in the current font.
A possible fix is simply to change the default font of either your OS (if the browser inherits the OS settings) or the browser. For example, my Firefox 11.0 on Ubuntu 11.10 is using the "serif" font (which might be a synonym for ...

With Chrome 20.0.1132.57 (and many older versions), if you click on the right boundary of the address bar, between the star and the downward triangle in your picture, you can drag it left or right. The further left it is, the more room you have for icons.
If you want to hide some icons and show others, expand the icon area to see all the ones you want to ...

For some reason, the drag-and-drop mechanisms in both Nautilus and Konqueror do not work properly with the extension manager in Google Chrome / Chromium. I've found two solutions:
To force the issue, you can use an alternative file manager. I found that the one from the XFCE project called thunar works for me and can be run inside of either Gnome, KDE or ...

You might be interested in HTTP Strict Transport Security sometimes called STS or HSTS. This is a voluntary header a web server can send out to instruct the web browser that the site must always be secure. Chrome is one of the browsers that implement it. http://www.imperialviolet.org/2011/02/17/hstsui.html I think you can add Wikipedia to the default ...

Usually ubuntu-restricted-extras should work for you, like phunehehe mentioned.
Since Ubuntu 10.4 the sun-java* packages have moved from the "Multiverse Repository" to the "Partner Repositories".
Add the partner repositories to your package sources and you should be able install sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin.

If you've just downloaded the user script and its name is appearing in the bottom bar, open the Extensions page (Menu > Tools > Extensions, chrome://chrome/extensions/), then drag-and-drop from the download bar to the middle of the Extensions page. (Thanks to balpha for this method.)
If you've got the script on your system somewhere, you can use ...

It is most likely a bug with pixman. It has also been filed upstream.
There are several threads on the Arch boards about this issue, with various suggested workrounds—depending on your driver.

You might be able to do it through ccsm. In the animations plugin, you can add specific rules for specific programs or classes of programs:
Clicking on "New" will bring up this dialog:
If you click on the + sign to the right of "Window Match" you will (finally) get to this window:
If you now click on "Grab" and then click on the menu you are referring ...

PackageKit has the ability to notify when an Application, Session or the System needs to be restarted. For some reason, the Google Chrome package is causing PackageKit to notify you that your login session needs to be restarted. I think that the way PackageKit manages this kind of thing is a worst-case scenario, so it assumes that the whole session needs ...

The ACCEPT_KEYWORDS environment variable is for allowing "all" not-yet-marked stable packages/versions for the current architecture to be built.
The ~ in front of an arch means unstable (not "completely" tested).
The often better approach is to use /etc/portage/package.keywords and list the package in there with the ~amd64 keyword if you really need the ...

There is a preference to set the language preference for web pages: in the “Preferences” dialog (which may be called differently in your version), in the “Under the Hood” tab, click “Change font and language settings”.
This doesn't give you full control (you can only select languages that Chrome knows about, and there won't be a * at the end to make the ...

It might depend on your window manager, but in KDE Flash maximizes to the display the browser is in. It may not work as expected if your browser window spans across two displays. What I do is move the browser window to say the left screen, then hit maximize, it will be maximized on that left screen.
I don't know of any way to leave the browser on the ...

The preferred way to do this is to use apt pinning. It allows you to install a single package from testing/unstable, without migrating the whole system to testing/unstable. Caution: this will bring also package dependencies to testing. Pay attention at what are you doing.
A complete guide to pinning is here: http://wiki.debian.org/it/AptPreferences

There don't seem to be any Debian repositories that have up-to-date Chromium versions, but there's an Ubuntu Lucid PPA that can be (ab)used.
Add to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
Add the keys for that PPA:
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 4E5E17B5
Then just upgrade as ...
