This has been happening to me for a while (a couple of weeks?), I just decided to report it now, so the fact that this is quite new may not be directly relevant.

When it is started up again, there is a bar at the top of the screen saying that chromium did not shut down properly, with a button to restore tabs. Clicking the button often results in chromium crashing again. I am using Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS (64-bit). I tried running chromium-browser from the command line, and when it crashes, the following message shows: "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". about:version outputs: Chromium 20.0.1132.47 (Developer Build 144678) Ubuntu 12.04 OS Linux WebKit 536.11 (trunk@116185) JavaScript V8 3.10.8.19 Flash 11.2 r202 User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/536.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu/12.04 Chromium/20.0.1132.47 Chrome/20.0.1132.47 Safari/536.11 Command Line /usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser --flag-switches-begin --enable-sync-tabs --flag-switches-end Executable Path /usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser Profile Path /home/benjamin/.config/chromium/Default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1054557/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
