Thanks Andre,

Unfortunately Chrome does not appear on the 'Internet' pop-up menu ( I have
Firefox and Midori there), and I don't have it as a desktop shortcut
either... I am figuring out how to get it to those two places, although it
should appear under 'Internet' by default after installation.

Steve,

I'm just throwing this out here because
how I install Google Chrome seems so different:

[32-bit]
cd /tmp
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libappindicator1
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb

[64-bit]
cd /tmp
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libappindicator1
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

It's always added itself to the menu just fine.
However, Chrome also seems to set itself as the default web browser,
even though I tell it specifically *not* to (my own preference).
So, after install, I have to run sudo update-alternatives
--config x-www-browser
to change the default setting to *keep* Firefox as default.

Eric
