​FOR THOSE PEOPLE ASKING FOR CHROMEBOOK SUPPORT:

​Only do this if you are willing to mess up your Chromebook; this ​will not​ work on school Chromebooks

​Setting up Linux

• Make sure your Chromebook can access Linux. ​Go to settings-> advanced-> Developers-> Turn on Linux development environment.
• Hit next a couple of times in the new popup window (don’t change any settings unless you know what you’re doing), wait for it to install.
• Once it finishes, a big black console will pop up. Good. Your Chromebook isn’t destroyed yet.
• Restart your Chromebook.
• Open up the newly installed console, type sudo get-apt update -y, then hit enter. Wait for stuff to finish downloading/installing, then type sudo get-apt upgrade -y.
• Close then open the console.

Installing text

• Navigate to this link and hit “Add to Chrome”.

​Installing a Desktop (for the goose)

​* Type sudo passwd root​, hit enter, and type your new (Linux) password.

• Then run sudo apt-get install task-kde-desktop -y and wait.
• If there aren’t any errors, skip this step. If there are errors, type ​cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc into the console and hit enter.
• You can run startkde in case your desktop closes or something.

​​Installing wine (to install your goose)

​* Run sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386, press enter. If it asks you to press y to confirm, type y then hit enter.

• Run wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key, press enter. If it asks you to press y to confirm, type y then hit enter.
• ​Run sudo apt-key add winehq.key -y.
• Run sudo apt update -y
• Run sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

Installing a Linux file explorer (so you can find your goose later)

• Run sudo apt update -y
• Run sudo apt install nautilus -y
• It should be in your apps tray, under the folder “Linux Apps” or something similar.

Now you can install goose boy

• Download the Desktop Goose .exe
• Run winecfg
• Click the graphics tab, change the “Screen Resolution” slider until it looks the best.
• Go into normal Chromebook files app, and drag the DesktopGoose v0.3.exe from the Downloads folder to the Linux files folder.
• Run wine 'DesktopGoose v0.3.exe' (Change ’DesktopGoose v0.3 to whatever you need the installer).
• Change the extract folder to ```C:, and click extract.

Running the desktop goose

• Open the Chromebook files app, go to the Linux files folder. Click on the 3-dot-menu and enable “Show Hidden Files”.
• Open the .wine folder, navigate to the drive_c folder.
• Find the DesktopGoose v0.3 folder, open it.
• Locate GooseDesktop.exe.
• Now, you need to figure out your Linux username. Open the terminal up, and and there should be some text in green. Write down the part between the dollar symbol ($) and the @penguin. Let’s say, for the following steps, the mine is yourusername.
• Now type (in the console) wine "/home/yourusername/.wine/drive_c/DesktopGoose v0.3/GooseDesktop.exe.
• If Desktop Goose opens up, great! Move on to the section called “Making a shortcut”.
• If it doesn’t, see the possible following fixes:
• Run startkde
• Make sure the folder name is correct (if you need help, leave a reply).
• Or just shoot me a reply asking for help lol

Making a shortcut

• Open file manager, make sure “Show hidden files” is turned on.
• Navigate to ```Linux Files-> .local-> share-> applications-> wine-> Programs.
• Open the folder for Desktop Goose (Should be named something like DesktopGoose v0.3).
• 2 finger click the .desktop file, and click “Open with text”.
• Replace the text that follows after Exec= with the complete file path (wine "/home/yourusername/.wine/drive_c/DesktopGoose v0.3/GooseDesktop.exe) you found earlier.
• Hit ctrl-s to save, then close Text.
• Now you can open up Desktop Goose from the app tray.
