    Same here.

    These are all my error messages if I try to run it in Terminal:

    Code:
    dude@dude-desktop1:~$ wine media/DATA/ChromeSetup.exe
    wine: creating configuration directory '/home/dude/.wine'...
    fixme:winspool:AddPrinterDriverExW Flags 0x8 ignored (Fallback to APD_COPY_ALL_FILES)

    wine: '/home/dude/.wine' created successfully.
    wine: cannot find 'media/DATA/ChromeSetup.exe'

    IF you read the page it says: Note: If you want to use a Chromium-based browser, you should look elsewhere. Although many Chromium modules build under Linux and a few unit tests pass, nothing actually runs.

    So.. nothing actually runs. (sorry =/)

    I did in fact read the page. I am just happy that they are actively trying to make the native version work, and rather than trying to make it work under wine I am going to try and contribute to making the linux version work...

    You have to install it in Windows first to get the real install files!

    The install is 22Mb in size and consists of 2 files "Setup.exe" and "chrome.7z"

    Can't get them to run in wine
    Laters...

    http://cache.googlevideo.com/chrome/..._installer.exe

    Installs and runs (albeit buggy).

    Re: Any luck running Google Chrome on Wine?

    this is what i get when i run the "Setup.exe" under wine
    Code:
    sol@Callisto:~$ wine ChromeSetup.exe
    wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\ChromeSetup.exe": Module not found
    So I move the exe into the "System32" folder and run it again..
    Code:
    sol@Callisto:~$ wine ChromeSetup.exe
    fixme:advapi:CheckTokenMembership ((nil) 0x12d1d0 0x33f930) stub!
    fixme:process:SetProcessShutdownParameters (00000280, 00000001): partial stub.
    fixme:ole:CoInitializeSecurity ((nil),-1,(nil),(nil),6,2,(nil),64,(nil)) - stub!
    fixme:winhttp:WinHttpOpen ((null), 1, (null), (null), 0x0): stub
