In addition to my previous post, my friend from Brasil pointed out that Codeweavers created a more elegant way to play with Google Chrome.

Google chrome under Wine
While it still is beta, like anything from Google, it is possible to run Google chrome on Sabayon.
We need to download the installer first:
http://gpdl.google.com/chrome/install/149.29/chrome_installer.exe
Click to install it and notice that a desktop icon for Chrome is created. Now open up a terminal and edit this file.
nano Google\ Chrome.desktop
Edit the line so it looks like this:
Exec[$e]=env WINEPREFIX="/home/joost/.wine" wine "C:\\windows\\profiles\\joost\\Local Settings\\Application Data\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe" --new-http --in-process-plugins
As you can see i've added --new-http --in-process-plugins to that line (outside the quotes).
Now fire op Chrome from your desktop icon.
I noticed that on KDE the top panel overlaps, so might wanna drag it away to the side.
Happy hacking!
