Re: error while loading shared libraries: libXrandr.so.2

Is this chrome that you got through the spot repo? It's probably that chrome is looking for the i686 version rather than the x86_64 version. I'm not on Fedora right this moment but you might try

yum install libXrandr.i686 and see if that fixes it. (Or possibly libXrandr-devel.i686)

Re: error while loading shared libraries: libXrandr.so.2

Thank You

Partial Fix but when I installed both, then it gave me:
error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Search of feora forums suggested need gtk2
tried yum -y install gtk2
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Package gtk2-2.24.13-1.fc17.x86_64 already installed and latest version.

Is this problem my bad ?

I switched to google-chrome-stable.x86_64 0:23.0.1271.91-167501 and it worked.

Thanks for the hint
