Kinda New, and need alittle bit of help.

Well, It been a very very long time since i used Linux in any form. And I am trying to install a oldie but goodie game Chromium. Which is not in our repo. So i Dl'ed the src and data tar balls and untared them. In the install instructions. It states that I need to: Set CHROMIUM_DATA environment variable to point to data directory ( i.e. Chromium-0.9/data )??? This is were O am lost. Well I tried to do the make anyways but it died out... From what it looks like I have all the depends needed. Below is a copy of the echo from running the make:

[devnull@myhost Chromium-0.9]$ make
cd support/openal/; make
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/devnull/Desktop/Chromium-0.9/support/openal'
mkdir -p ./lib
cd linux; sh autogen.sh; ./configure --enable-sdl; make

So I was hoping could someone explain were do I again -> Set CHROMIUM_DATA environment variable to point to data directory ( i.e. Chromium-0.9/data ) to get this up and going.

BTW I love the distro... Since I been back using Linux Arch and Slack have been the only to distro that KISS! Thanks in advance for all the help.

Some advice: for future posts here in the forum, please use the topic to summarise your problem/question, instead of saying "need a bit of help."
