How to run flash videos and Google Hangouts on ARM Linux computers?


I have a Samsung ARM Chromebook running Bodhi Linux, http:/BodhiLinux.com , and Chrome OS. Bodhi Linux has Libreoffice and other software that I need but doesn't play flash videos (will play html5 videos) and have the capability to do Google Hangouts. How do we get these capabilities into ARM Linux? Thanks.

Comes with it's own flash plugin

Edit: forgot this was arm though. I don't know if a google-chrome arm package is available.

Thanks but the question is still not answered. The Chrome link is for intel processors only, not ARM Linux.

If you still have this problem, try using this file: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/553461/libflashplayer.so and copy it to your browser's plugins folder. Firefox supports it but don't know about chrome.
