UBUNTU PRIVATE BROWSER?

Question

I have a Dell Inspiron Mini 10 and it has Ubuntu. I like Google Chrome, but it's not available for Ubuntu! So please list a good browser for Ubuntu 8.04. I really would appreciate it if it had a private browser! One that wouldn't record my history! Thank You ;) And by the way, I'm gonna try to hand out 10 points tonight so if I like your browser, then you'll be sure to get it! Thanks!!:)

Answer 1

Firefox! It comes standard with Ubuntu 8.04,



Firefox has an option to use private browsing.



To use this option:

Start Firefox > Tools > Start Private Browsing



Or when Firefox is open press:

Ctrl + Shift + P



Firefox is currently ahead in the speed of browsers and is definitely the best and most reliable browser to you on most Linux distributions, especially Ubuntu where Firefox is, by default, installed.

The Chromium Browser On Ubuntu 8.04 With CrossOver Chromium



Chromium is an open-source browser project that is the basis for Google's Chrome browser. Right now, Chromium doesn't support Linux natively, but Codeweavers has created a Linux port called CrossOver Chromium that can be installed free of charge. This guide shows how to install CrossOver Chromium on Ubuntu 8.04.



Open Firefox and go to http://www.codeweavers.com/services/ports/chromium/. Select the Chromium package for Ubuntu and Debian.



In the Firefox download dialogue, select Open with GDebi Package Installer (default).



After the Package Installer has started, click on the Install Package button.



Type in your password.



CrossOver Chromium is now being installed.



Afterwards, click on Close and leave the Package Installer.



You can now start Chromium by going to Applications > Crossover Chromium > Chromium.
