@carlodoro88: There already is a bug raised against chromium - https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=404357 . In fact I was asked by the chromium people to raise this bug!
There appears to be a strange interaction between the open-source drivers for AMD cards and Xorg (the version used in ubuntu 14.04) and Google Chrome. Sometimes I got crashes with Firefox instead of Chrome, but much less often. I suspect Chrome works with graphics in such a way that it's more likely to trigger the crash. I can't remember if Chrome was always like this on ubuntu 14.04 or only in more recent releases of Chrome (36+). ** Bug watch added: code.google.com/p/chromium/issues #404357 http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=404357 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1367870 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 system with Radeon HD 6330M hangs regularly, especially when using Google Chrome To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1367870/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
