I just installed ubuntu on my laptop, everything works fine, but I'd like to use chrome instead of firefox. I downloaded the .deb file from the chrome website, and when I open it, the install buton inside the software center is inactive (I can't click it) and it's telling me dependency is not satisfiable: libcurl3

I did a search for libcurl3 in the Software Center, the three results I'm getting are already installed. Any ideas how to fix this?

I also tried installing chromium-browser, but that's not working out neither. I'm getting Package dependencies not resolved and this details block:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

chromium-browser: Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) but 1:4.5.2-8ubuntu4 is to be installed
                  Depends: libxdamage1 (>= 1:1.1) but 1:1.1.3-1ubuntu1 is to be installed
                  Depends: zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg) but 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu3 is to be installed
                  Depends: libnss3-1d (>= 3.12.3) but it is not going to be installed
