[Bug 1855489] Re: Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1616650 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1616650 Okay, another updated happened today (version 79.0.3945.79) and I can confirm that it creates the issue where I lose the dot under the Gnome icon. So bug $1616650 definitely looks like the solution to this problem.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1616650 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1616650 Alexis, the problem you're describing is definitely the automatic update mechanism that results in gnome-shell loosing track of the running instance of chromium. I strongly suggest you run: snap set core experimental.refresh-app-awareness=true and restart chromium. This should fix the problem. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1616650 snap refresh while command is running may cause issues -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1855489 Title: Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1855489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1855489] Re: Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features
Well, I can't really confirm whether it is a refresh (which I called auto-restart) after an auto-update or a an actual crash... but for sure the window does not change yet it gets disconnected from the Gnome Desktop (and that has happened many times now). At least I'll post to confirm that the history fails next time that happens and I'll check the versions to see whether it happens when an upgrade happens. However, the problem doesn't look like bug #1616650 in terms of functionality, the tabs all remain in place and work just fine without having to restart for many days after it gets disconnected from Gnome. That being said, the read-only folder (point 2) sounds like that could be part of the issue. I'm also not so sure that there was an update. I'll now pay attention to the exact version and see whether it changes next time the dot under the icon disappear. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1855489 Title: Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1855489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1855489] Re: Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features
I'm not aware of such a feature (auto-restart). Did you mean auto-update? The snap will indeed automatically update in the background, which may cause some issues if the app is already running. This is being tracked by bug #1616650, and I suggest you try setting the experimental.refresh-app-awareness flag to true (see https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/wip-refresh-app-awareness/10736). If chromium restarts under your feet while you're using it, that's probably a crash, and I'd be interested in steps you take to reproduce it. ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1855489 Title: Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1855489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
