To get to the firebug-ish dev tools, right click and select "Inspect Element", or pull down on the "Control" menu (top right) and you should see a Developer menu.


I see the Developer menu, but "Developer Tools" is not listed on my Ubuntu build like it is on my Windows build. :/

I'm pretty sure I can't Inspect Element on my ubuntu build either, but I will try it when I get home.


If you hook into the Google repo, the unstable Chrome builds have "Inspect Element", but the daily PPA builds of Chromium haven't for me. As I stated earlier though, I haven't updated them for a couple of months though.


You need to install the "chromium-browser-inspector" package and restart Chromium.


The firebug-like plugin is in a separate package: chromium-browser-inspector
