Chrome Version       : 56.0.2924.87

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Force X to use the "modesetting" driver instead of the "intel" driver.
(2) Run Chrome.
(3)

What is the expected result?

chrome://gpu reports "Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable" for all setting.

What happens instead?

chrome://gpu should report "Hardware acceleration available".

Goobuntu will be migrating to using the "modesetting" driver within the year. Chrome must be fixed by then.
