Anyone got Chromium browser on BB/B?

Yes through Arch Linux ARM…

Michael_Riksman · July 14, 2013, 2:22pm

so, not on Angstrom? Does the BBB come with it installed by default?

Stefan_Agner · July 14, 2013, 2:28pm

No, you need to install it manually. But probably easier than compiling from scratch

I couldn’t find it for Angstrom BeagleBone Rev A6…

Stefan_Agner · July 14, 2013, 2:39pm

Arch Linux is not Angstrom. You would have to flash Arch Linux ARM first…

Michael_Riksman · July 14, 2013, 2:57pm

Right. Cheers

BBB comes with Chromium.

I know for a fact that we have Chromium compiled for v7. IIRC even account sync works since we started using the new keys.

Yeah I thought it did from what I read. I was asking because I was interested in node-webkit and Appjs which use CEF. It seems there is dependency issues with node-webkit itself. In any case, I’ve decided on Qt and it’s webkit to display my HTML page.

It ships on every BeagleBone Black board. Runs out of the box.
