Chromium Dev Build

This is an in-progress build of Chromium on Linux. The following significant chunks of functionality are known to be missing:

Plugins, including Flash (so no YouTube, Hulu, etc.)
Printing
Complex text
Complex tab dragging
Gears support
Other parts of the browser are notably incomplete, poorly tuned and broken. User beware!

‘Chromium’ vs ‘Google Chrome’

Chromium is an open source browser project. Google Chrome is a browser from Google, based on the Chromium project.

This is a build of Chromium. No versions of Google Chrome for Linux will exist until Google makes an official release.

Don't file bugs without doing the work

Every minute spent triaging and de-duplicating bugs is a minute spent not fixing them. If you have a good bug report (e.g. includes a stack trace or a reduced test case), first verify it exists in the latest build, then verify it hasn't been filed already, then file your bug using the Linux-specific template.
