The only "fix" was to close the browser & re-open; this worked for a while, but then locked up again. This problem was NOT seen running Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS or Mint 16. This was happening frequently with Shockwave Flash v 11.2 r202 that is the default install. I opened a new thread on the Ubuntu forums to get some help....http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2205971. Another user reported a similar problem using the Chrome browser, but stated it would clear up after a couple of minutes. One of the forum mods suggested it might be related to the shockwave version that is reaching end of life support from Adobe, and told me about the new version for Chromium titled "Pepper Flash". After a web search I found an article about Pepper Flash being added to the 14.04 repositories. I then did the following: sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install This installed shockwave flash v 12.0.0.44 This seems to have fixed the problem as I am now able to open multiple tabs without any lock ups; after running for over 8+ hours it still is working correctly. my system info: tommy3@tommy3-Inspiron-531s:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch) Release: 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-8 generic Chromium version used in this browser: 32.0.1700.107 If more info is needed, let me know.
