Package: chromium
Version: 98.0.4758.102-1~deb11u1
Latest Chromium on Debian Bullseye fails to start on aarch64/arm64
systems. Different ones with different kernels were tested, though all
Linux 5.10 variants, using (and generally supporting) modesetting DDX.
Only v98 from security repo is affected, v90 from "regular" Bullseye
repo starts fine.

-------
The X server itself works well, any other X application starts fine, X
server logs show no errors, but a regular exit like when you exit the X
client. It's hence definitely Chromium itself which fails. We tried all
kind of GPU related flags, like "--disable-gpu", changing renderer,
disabling GPU rasterization and all such, any combination or skipping
all of them, even the ones shipped by default with the package
(/etc/chromium.d) makes no difference. Starting with xinit (as root),
startx or from desktop doesn't make a difference either.
Best regards,
