Click on spanner in top right and check full screen.
Bit of a bug though as you cannot get it out of full screen afterwards though.

If MicroB and/or Firefox would incorporate the good features of Google Chrome, I wouldn't be interested in switching browsers. I like the Feedly add-on (and it works great on the N900) and I like the Readability add-on (it also works fine) and the add-ons from MicroB (such as Greasemonkey) don't work particularly well on MicroB (Greasemonkey totally doesn't work for me) and Firefox and Fennec are clumsy and sometimes slow.

Our privacy has been significantly eroded since 9/11 anyway; Google has a pretty good instinct for doing things that appeal to users. If my keystrokes have to go somewhere, I'd rather they went to Google than to Apple or to Microsoft. And I'm willing to surrender some privacy in exchange for the right goodies.

Any work-around to override hildon-menu bar?

Nice, really nice (I love Chrome)... but can anyone "thank" jacekowski from Chromium?

Does anyone else experience a problem viewing the "basic" tab of the option window?

And another thing - I can't get the favorites sync working , it fails after a couple of minutes. Can anyone confirm this?

Definitely the best :-)

Here is the summary of the steps: (For those who lazy to search all the threads)

Download the file from: http://jacekowski.org/maemo/
I use pcsuite to transfer the file To data "Drive", you can use the default web browser too.

Open an XTerminal
1. sudo gainroot
2. cd MyDocs --> assuming you store the files here.
3. dpkg -i libxss-1.1.3.deb
4. dpkg -i chromium-5.0.369.2.deb

Chromium Broser should be installed now.

Next step is to install the Chromium Touch.
1. make sure your wifi/3g is already connected to the internet
1. Open Chromium application
3. Click on the top right hand side "Settings" Image
4. Click on Extensions
5. Click On "More for gallery" . (Click on "Proceed Anyway" If you encountered site's security certificate is not trusted)
6. Search for "touch"
7. use your keypad to go down and look for Chromium Touch
8. Install it. (Click on "Proceed Anyway" If you encountered site's security certificate is not trusted)
9. Done

if you encountered problem for the installation on Chromium touch, just close the Chromium and repeat the step.

Some useful technique: (Summaries from the threads - So credit given to them).
CTRL + Blue Arrow + s -> to zoom in
CTRL + Blue Arrow + f -> to zoom out
CTRL + Blue Arrow + p -> to go back to normal zoom
Settings Image (top right) - Full Screen -> to go to full screen
CTRL + n -> to go back to normal screen (from full screen)

Enjoy it and dont forget to thanks: jacekowski for his effort

Only way I can get out of fullscreen is by using wmctrl: wmctrl -x -r chrome -b toggle,fullscreen

The first browser on Maemo to get 100/100 on Acid3
But not lined up correctly so not perfect.

Hmm....Not sure.....I am able to go to other task after pressing Ctrl+N
The "top menu bar" will appears.

And I just need to press the "most left" for task switcher and works fine. Just tested it.
