We start the process by enabling two Chrome Flags in our Chromebook. It is to increase the performance of the game, it is optional and you can always revert it back. To do this you open the two links below in Google Chrome.
The first Chrome Flag will enable GPU acceleration for Linux Applications. The second enables Hyper Threading for your CPU (for the whole Chrome OS).
chrome://flags/#crostini-gpu-support
chrome://flags/#scheduler-configuration
2) 00:51 Now we will enable the Linux Container on our Chromebook. You can always remove it again in the future as well if needed.
To enable it, we go to the settings of our Chromebook, inside of it, we click on the "Advance" option in the left panel, and then the "Developers" section. Then enable Linux from there as seen in the video.
