| Google Chrome segfaults on latest Linux kernel in Ubuntu 11.10 | |||
| Reported by drm.mu...@gmail.com, Apr 5 2012 | Back to list | ||
Chrome Version : Google Chrome 18.0.1025.151 (Official Build 130497) URLs (if applicable) : Other browsers tested: Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue: Safari 5: Firefox 4.x: OK IE 7/8/9: What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Update to the latest Linux kernel (3.0.0-18) in Ubuntu 11.10 32-bit 2. Launch Google Chrome with some tabs open from last time. 3. Observe that it doesn't load, but segfaults instead. What is the expected output? A working browser. What do you see instead? Nothing. In the CLI, I see a message about a Segmentation fault. How frequently does this problem reproduce? (Always, sometimes, hard to reproduce?) Apparently, this only happens if there are tabs left over from last time. If there are none, Chrome seems to work sometimes. But my settings make it so that there are always tabs to refresh. What is the impact to the user, and is there a workaround? If so, what is it? The impact is that Google Chrome no longer works on the latest kernel in the distribution. A workaround is to revert to the older kernel, 3.0.0-17, where Chrome works flawlessly. Please provide any additional information below.

Chrome and Chromium segfault, but Firefox now also gives issues.
