ezmac/google-chrome repository overview

⁠Google chrome with pepper flash and pulseaudio

Docker for hipsters who run any modern linux and don't want to pollute their clean os with filthy "proprietary" software.'

Runs official google-chrome and Pepper Flash. I made this to watch netflix in wheezy. As far as I know, google-chrome doesn't work without glibc 2.15. Since I didn't want to add experimental, I just dockered it.

uses pulseaudio network streaming and cookie for authentication

Install requires adding "load-module module-native-protocol-tcp" to /etc/pulse/default.pa and restarting pulse sudo service pulseaudio restart. Assumes docker host (pulse host) is running on 172.17.42.1. Should be overridable with -e PULSE_SERVER=hostip.

Built on debian wheezy, docker version 1.3.1.

Please point out any errors or ways it could be improved.
