Again, the possibility is on the table: Chromium could replace Firefox as default web browser in Ubuntu 13.10 . It is neither the first nor the second time is proposed. To the third time lucky?

webbro? Chromium as default web browser in Ubuntu 13.10? [Updated]

We found the news

WebUpd8 where discuss some of the innovations that could take shape in Ubuntu, Xubuntu and Lubuntu also-13.10. You know, the next version of Unity, which will serve as a testing ground for Mir, the server is cooking graph Canonical, the new packaging system and installer, Click Packages, or replacement Firefox for Chromium . We were the latest by this time.

According to Chad Miller, the developer of Ubuntu that has returned to release the hare, “ Chromium has matured to be as good or better than Firefox. It will be based quite a lot of code and webapps Ubuntu Touch . We should consider using Chromium as the default browser in Ubuntu “.

Apparently Chromium is ready for the first line. There are, however, some problems to fix, which Miller listed as follows:

Solution

    • bugs
    • facilitate data migration from Firefox
    • Incompatibility with accessories
    • Lack of support for some architectures, such as PowerPC
    • Lack of integration with tools like Orca screen reader

    Possibly, this is one of the issues discussed at the Ubuntu Developer Summit which begins today, so it should not take long to know more.


    [Update]

    We forgot to mention that while this proposal arises, Lubuntu developers are considering doing the opposite , replace Chromium the default browser of the distribution, for Firefox . The reason is as obvious as the significant improvement in the management of resources that Firefox has experienced in recent times, while Chromium is increasingly ravenous for that matter, what a system designed to be functional while light not right.

    rest of the apparent regression of the Linux kernel 2.6.38 cause the battery life of laptops and a new problem arises called Chromium

     500x354 browser chromium Battery Problems? It can be Linux, Chromium can be ...

    should be clear that the problems with battery life with Linux 2.6.38 many users have complained, as many did not (myself included), and so far no one from the top developers have spoken about it all comes in the wake of the usual research Phoronix as we say, backed by many users.

    For Chromium no one seems to be complaining about time the news comes not from official channels although there is a reported error, the Drive-In Tech published based on the experiences and evidence of its author apparently affect the current version of web browser , the 12.x.

    short, Chromium use significantly increases energy expenditure for laptops . As proof there are two catches Chromium comparing with Firefox, and there is a noticeable difference between them (the tests have been performed with a specific program for Intel platforms will find in the original article):

     500x386 powertop ubuntu Battery Problems? It can be Linux, Chromium can be ...

     powertop ubuntu 500x396 Battery Problems? It can be Linux, Chromium can be ...

    time we left the thing, undramatic, because there is already a bug report that will follow its course and it seems Chromium version 14 and is not affected by this behavior , so in the worst case is only a matter of time before this happens.

    Meanwhile, a sharp eye, perhaps some may have affected you over the bill and the blame they are still carrying the kernel. Or not.

    Advaita is an issue for Google Chrome / Chromium integrating the color scheme, and the scroll bars browser with style native GNOME 3, taking into account the poor visual customization options available Chrome / Chromium.

    If you like and want to install it, you can start with the traditional theme, go to the scroll bars and end enjoying a much more in line with the rest of the desktop , always talking about GNOME 3.

    Hexxeh young developer was already long known for having set up a system whereby we could test preliminary versions of Chromium OS. The operating system, which is the basis for Google Chrome OS, continues its development, and although for a time was difficult to access it unless compiláramos us on our own, now the thing is much easier .

    OS ChromiumOS2 Chromium Test by Hexxeh

    Hexxeh

    is that the burden has become the Chromium OS images on, to VMware, VirtualBox and USB keys if you want to install this OS on your computers. The name of these versions is Vanilla Nightly Builds, and are perfect for taking a look at this Open Source project.

    WebUpd8 tested versions of VirtualBox , and apparently the thing does not go very smooth: no hardware acceleration for graphics , so the interface we leave a little thrown. So it seems that it is best to opt for the ISO images for USB keys.

    The process for using these images is very simple optéis optéis by the way, and you can see more details on the original article WebUpd8 in which as mentioned have used the method of VirtualBox.

    images in their different versions are available on this website, so if you want, and can download the latest and try it on any of the three formats.
