6c44675698 Use /compat/linux/proc instead of /usr/compat/linux/proc as the mount point of 
linproc in the examples, since:

- linux_base always installs to /compat and creates it as a directory if it
  does not exist as a symlink
- Custom installations (not done by sysinstall(8)) may not have /compat at all
- The linuxemu chapter uses /compat anyway (except a single example, fixed)
- The new bsdinstall(8) does not create /compat either as directory or symlink

87946403d4 Document the www/chromium port in the Desktop Applications chapter: 
- Add Chromium to the list of web browsers available for FreeBSD
- Document installation of Chromium from Ports and as a package
- Document the configuration of Chromium with the Java and Flash plugins

On a side note, I'm not sure it makes sense anymore to include the Flash
and Java installation steps within the Firefox sections, only to reference
them from configuration steps within other web browser sections.

I think it's time these are separated out into their own sections in this
chapter, and have added it to my own todo list, but if one of our many
contributors has a chance to change this before I get to it, I won't
complain.  :)
