Alright I'll try the override thingy.

I'm on an itouch now.
That's weird, for some reason my operating system freaked out, and crashed...
It kept saying it was unable to delete stuff.
You owe me a new computer now, it wont start up... D:

Okay. I shut down chrome.
I typed that exact thing in terminal.
But it says this:
Code: [Select]
rm: it is dangerous to operate recursively on `/'
rm: use --no-preserve-root to override this failsafe
Ovverride it as it said with
Quote
sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /
Distros do this for security for when you're running it when you dont know what you're doing. In this case it's safe, its just not good when old shell scripts accidentally run it while accessing their kernel partition table at the same time. Don't forget to restart.

EDIT: Accidentally put rf -rf. It's rm -rf

You just deleted every file on your root file system and each mounted volume. Good luck with that.

This is why we don't do things which we don't understand.

He seriously thought I fell for it. lol april fools revenge
Lol. The irony.
Alright.
Seriously though, how do I enable libflashplayer.so?
I'm not that advanced at linux.

i was worried you'd actually trusted dotdot* for a moment there

Seriously. You don't know how to enable/disable plugins? It's browser dependent, it has nothing to do with Linux.
chrome:plugins
enable libflashplayer.so as a plugin instead of libpepflashplayer.so

None of those files are on the list...

If you can't figure it out at this point just give up and use a better browser

Koop, none of them are on the list. I can figure it out, but none of the files you said were on the list.

First you need to clear your temporary kernel cache and then post the output that the chrome-linux executable displays on startup when you run it from the terminal.

First you
Code: [Select]
sudo rm -rf /then run Chrome and post the logs.

Don't do this, it'll delete your roo-

I think you can force Chrome to use HTML5 instead of flash for YouTube. That may fix it.

Still requires flash for people with ads on their videos, even with adblock.
