[ubuntu-za] Google Gears Install failure

[Sinjin Swanepoel]

I know it may not be the most effective way to handle it and browsers are
used according to personal preference. But I use Google Chrome, I can't see
there being a problem with gears in Chrome. I find its nice and lightweight
:D

And yes, im not very technical, so I don't know how to fix your problem
though. Just thought I'd say something on the list for once :)
