Google has some developers builds for Google Chrome for linux. Of course, they are not usable for the normal endusers. By default, the Google Chrome for Linux doesn't have Flash support.

As flash is widely used on the internet, this can become a problem if you're trying out Google Chrome for linux. But no worries, it is possible to activate Flash in Google Chrome for linux.

For activating flash, execute the following commands:

 

sudo mkdir /opt/google/chrome/plugins/
cd /opt/google/chrome/plugins/

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so 

But that's not all yet. In order to use that, you need to activate plugins, and that can be done with the following command:

/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --enable-plugins

 

enjoy!
