Answer 1

Try the following.

Use this code for 32-bit system:

sudo apt-get install libxss1
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome*.deb

For 64-bit system use:

sudo apt-get install libxss1
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

This installs a needed library for Google Chrome, then downloads the latest version of Chrome to the current working directory and installs it.

Run google-chrometo start the browser.
