WARNING: CHROMIUM FOR RASPBIAN WHEEZY IS AT VERSION 22 AND THE CURRENT VERSION OF CHROMIUM IS v53. USE CHROMIUM ON RASPBIAN WHEEZY AT YOUR OWN RISK

NOTE: CHROMIUM ON WHEEZY IS SLOW.

First, boot up your Raspberry Pi. Then click on LXTerminal.

Type sudo apt-get update.

Then, to install Chromium v22, type sudo apt-get install chromium.

Then click the LXDE icon in the taskbar (called panel on Linux) and then click Internet. Then click Chromium Web Browser and Chromium should launch.

CHROMIUM v22 IS OUT OF DATE AND DESPITE HAVING ‘APPLICATION MENU’ IF YOU CLICK ON CHROME WEB STORE YOU WILL GET YOUR CHROME VERSION IS NOT SUPPORTED BY CHROME WEB STORE.

HTML5 support is very low, around 300 out of 555 points.
