I'm a complete newbie to Ubuntu Server and am looking for a web browser which I am learning to use as it is a requirement of the course I'm doing.
It's been many a year since I've spent any time poking around a CLI and am constantly going back and forward between various websites for hints on coding.
I'm running this in VMWare and it would make life a bit easier if I could find a decent web browser to use.
I won't use Firefox as I find it too unstable and don't use it on my windows box... I've tried Links2 and a couple of other light weight broswers but I'm not keen.
Can any one give an idiots guide to what I need to do to set up Chrome or something similar to run on Ubuntu server.

@Gibboncore So you want access from chrome to a website executed in the VMware server. Do you want to install a web browser inside the server instead than accessing from the host server? Accessing from the host server would be faster and it would mess less with the virtual machine. But I don't know if it is a requirement of that course to do it the other way around.

Open your terminal and type this
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb
That above chrome is good for 32-bit systems.If you have a 64 bit system then you can get the other versions from Google-chrome

@Gibboncore Chromium-browser is the open source project which chrome is based in. Essentially chromium is the same as chrome apart from not having flash built-in, not having support for google cloud print and a colorless icon (and some other things like that ;)) IMHO if you do not require flash I would totally choose chromium. Which is probably your case

@snow: obviously. But the problem is to run chrome you need to install a complete X-system, and I don't think the CLI line forapt-getting chromium is the way to help a beginner install a window-environment. This will give all sorts of dependencys. Just giving this line without going in to that isn't helping I believe. @gibboncore: if you want chrome, you need a graphical enviroment. Maybe you'd be better off just installing a desktop version instead of ubuntu server?

The installation Procedure for Google Chrome Browser 64-bit version 73.0.3683.86.
Step-1: First, add (if not added already) the Google Chrome repository on your system using the following command. While using PPA to our system we also receive the latest updates whenever you check for system updates.
$ wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
Now add the PPA url to the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list file as per Ubuntu system architecture.
$ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list'
Step-2: Install or Upgrade Google Chrome
After adding Google Chrome repository in our system use following commands to install the latest Google Chrome stable release. If you already have installed an older version, It will upgrade currently installed version with recent stable version.
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable
Step-3: Verify version
$ google-chrome --version
Figure-1: Google Chrome latest version 73.0.3683.86
you will see the output will be Google Chrome 73.0.3683.86.
Step-4: Launch Google Chrome
After completing step-3 the Google Chrome has been installed successfully on your system. Finally issue command to see Chrome browser:
$ google-chrome-stable &
Note: You can also access Chrome browser through Gnome dash and double-click chrome browser shortcut.

@snow: obviously. But the problem is to run chrome you need to install a complete X-system, and I don't think the CLI line forapt-getting chromium is the way to help a beginner install a window-environment. This will give all sorts of dependencys. Just giving this line without going in to that isn't helping I believe. @gibboncore: if you want chrome, you need a graphical enviroment. Maybe you'd be better off just installing a desktop version instead of ubuntu server?

if the OP is running a default ubuntu server, there probably will be no graphical environment...

How do you want to access the browser? By the terminal? By a screen attached to the server? By other means?

It's a virtual server running in VMware so I just want some way of running some from of chrome from the CLI. I have no sort of GUI installed...
– Gibboncore
Jan 19 '13 at 19:29
@Gibboncore So you want access from chrome to a website executed in the VMware server. Do you want to install a web browser inside the server instead than accessing from the host server? Accessing from the host server would be faster and it would mess less with the virtual machine. But I don't know if it is a requirement of that course to do it the other way around.
