I haven't used Chrome or Chromium in ages, so I'm probably wrong

, but I believe the binary is `google-chrome` or some such.

Look in the .desktop file for the command.

Yes, I know what it is. The last time I used Chromium was in Crunchbang Statler I think, when I believe it was included by default - and I remember launching it via `google-chrome` or something similar. Try it.

turns out by default, chromium is not allowed to run as root unless you do "#chrome --user-data-dir #some dir# (I put '/root/chromium', not sure that makes sense, which I believe(hopefully) it can be updated later on"

Why do you want to run it as root?
