The version 64.0.3282.186 works fine

The behaviour during the crash is that Chrome appears to start - a new window appears in the task panel.  If you maximise the window it appears to maximise, but doesn't display anything - only the background of the window that was there already.

Chrome never starts after this.  I have to right click on the panel icon and select 'close'.  Then after a few seconds, I get the 'Chrome is not responding' message, and I have to force quit.

This issue occurs 100% of the time for this version.

Unable to reproduce the issue on Debian Rodate using chrome reported version-65.0.3325.146 (stable) as per the steps mentioned in C#0.

Chrome started without any issue from command line (terminal).

Please provide us the OS (Ubuntu/Debian/Mint) where the issue observed with new chrome version(stable/beta...)

If possible provide us the server is from chrome://crashes to proceed further.
Thanks..!

Please can you clarify what is required?  I can't access  chrome://crashes because browser fails to start.

Since Linux Mint OS is not available with TE team, hence adding "TE-NeedsTriageFromMTV"  label for further triage

MTV doesn't have a Mint device as well.   kkaluri@ please check on the available devices and update the bug.

OP: Does chrome start when running with --disable-gpu ?

Yes: --disable-gpu solves the issue :-)

$ google-chrome-stable --disable-gpu

Please attach the crash IDs now from chrome://crashes

Hi
The crash ids are not showing at the above URL. Perhaps the process never gets to the point of recording the crash.

It's not clear that a crash causes this. It sounds like a driver-related issue where rendering doesn't work for some reason.

Following the instructions at https://www.chromium.org/developers/bisect-builds-py would be useful to pinpoint the issue, if this is a regression.
