Hello, this bug also affects me. I get "Illegal instruction (core dumped)" in console if I try to start Chromium 89. I think it happens because chromium has added requirement for SSE3 in their compile flags (they added "-msse3" in build/config/compiler/BUILD.gn file), so it doesn't start on CPUs without SSE3. On Windows Chrome's updater checks for SSE3 support and doesn't update you past version 88 in this case, but on Ubuntu it got updated anyway. Here's relevant Chromium changes: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1123353 https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/2311044
