Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/58.0.3029.110 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. On a computer with dual graphics (Intel Core i7-2675QM integrated graphics and AMD Radeon HD6490M) ensure that no drivers are installed for the Radeon card and install only Intel graphics drivers. 2. Install chromium or google chrome 58.*, visit chrome://gpu and note that most features (including WebGL2) are hardware accelerated (none are disabled) 3. Install chromium or google chrome 59.* or greater, visit chrome://gpu, and note that no features are hardware accelerated and WebGL2 is disabled What is the expected behavior? WebGL2 and other graphics features should be enabled and hardware accelerated. What went wrong? On browsers version 59.* and greater, graphics features and hardware features are disabled on a machine which has dual graphics (Intel integrated and Radeon), but when only Intel drivers are installed. WebGL2 is disabled and other features are not hardware accelerated, resulting in lower quality video playback and problems playing games. In "problems detected" on the chrome://gpu page, "ATI/AMD cards with older drivers in Linux are crash-prone" appears in 59.* and greater, while this does not show up in a 58.* installed on the same machine (with no changes made to the machine). Attached are saved pages from chrome://gpu taken simultaneously from simultaneous installs of chrome 58.0.3029.110 and 59.0.3071.61 Did this work before? Yes 58.0.3029.110 Chrome version: >=59.0.3071.61 Channel: beta OS Version: Flash Version:
