Hello forum,
So I downloaded Chrome from google.com stable 64bit rpm for suse. I clicked it to install and the installation finishes fine. But then I can’t find it anywhere in my system. It’s opensuse 12.3 KDE 64bit. Not even in software manager.
openSUSE 12.3 is still not released. (6 hours to go from this momet, and even then people must have time to download and install it before they can start wondering why you do have allready openSUSE12.3).
This will be moved to Pre-release/Beta and is CLOSED for the moment.
Moved from Applications and open again.
Sorry. My problem. Wrong package downloaded…

Go to a prompt, then to the download directory, and type:
sudo rpm -ihv google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
What is the output?

I thought dependecy should be resolved automatically
Thanks
Only if you use openSuSE’s package management.and have the appropriate repositories loaded:
sudo zypper in google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
or better, add the repository, then use YaST to install and update:
sudo zypper ar http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64 Google-Chrome64
sudo zypper mr -r Google-Chrome64
BTW 12.3 has been released and this belongs in Applications, not Pre-Release/Beta.
thx for the quick reply…
i think i know whts wrong. apperently i wrongly installed opensuse 32bit on my 64bit machine, hence chrome 64bit doesnt work with 32bit libs…
my bad:(
guess im too excited n rushy to install 12.3
cheers

Yep, that would be a problem.
But the rpm command will /not/ resolve dependencies. You need to use
zypper to do that.

Yes, but the OP started this before 12.3 was released. And it is not clear from his posts that he reinstalled (or did anything else) to go to the released 12.3 Thus we others were (and are) still unsure about what he realy used.
Not important anymore as the OP now anounced to install anew (and I hope the released version and not some pre-release he has still lying around) in 64-bits. So we will leave this here (as the last of the 12.3 pre-release problems) and declare it SOLVED.
