I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 19.10. I have an old Nvidia card which relies on the 340 drivers, so I cannot use Wayland. I can launch Chromium browser ok, but then, after what seems like an interdeterminate period of time, new "things" will fail to render in the interface, and the only solution is to killall chrome. When the issue kicks in, existing webpages are fine, but following fail: * Navigate to a new web page (tab is blank) * Open a new tab (tab is blank) * Open a new window (entire window is blank) Chromium continues to respond to keystrokes, and you can see it loading things in the status bar, just the display does not render. Killing chromium and restarting it works until it happens again. I understand this is vague and would appreciate information on how to report problems with the chromium snap. apport tells me it can't do it, because it's a snap. Am happy to supply additional info if it happens again, as long as I know what I need to report. I switched to the beta snap after experiencing the problem with the stable snap. ** Affects: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: blank display empty render ux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853731 Title: chromium snap stops working after awhile, fails to render new tabs/pages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1853731/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
