Wow, getting Chrome for Linux on #FreeBSD is a breeze now.
1. linux_enable="YES" in rc.conf
2. pkg install linux-chrome
3. Start Chrome
Bing Bang boom

@andersgo this is the version of Chrome that was compiled for Linux. You can watch Netflix with this but not with chromium compiled for freebsd.
EDIT: Yes you can, see @grahamperrin 's reply

@andersgo www/chromium should also do Widevine, when two other packages are installed, however it's not working for me at the moment.

@trashheap does it work for you?
PS ignore the question, a second run of the chrome command succeeded.

@clf thanks. Ports quarterly or latest?
15.0-RELEASE?

"… Maybe first runs of www/chromium are just a little fragile. …"
I made a messy screen recording that shows failure with a first run.
