I Run google chrome as root on any Ubuntu [100 % works for all Linux]

2011-11-15

I love google in many ways . For one reason is that I love google chrome. Firefox makes my computer very slow. So I always prefer google chrome.When you are logged in Ubuntu or any linux version as root, you will not be able to run Google Chrome. This is because google restricted running Chrome running from root as it is directly linked with security . But there is solution for any Problem :-p. You can easily run Google Chrome also under root user. For this you have to tweak some strings in binary file of google chrome. The binary file of google chrome is located under “ /opt/google/chrome/chrome “ .google chrome cannot be run as root

Open that binary file. Find the string “ geteuid” and replace this string with “getppid”. That’s All .

Now Your chrome should be working under root also.
