As you click around inside or between tabs, you get repeated strobing which is disconcerting and borderline unusable. Disabling GPU altogether breaks rendering in many cases (for example, buttons become badly "torn"). The "solution" is to add the flags described here, i.e.: --disable- gpu-driver-bug-workarounds --enable-native-gpu-memory-buffers https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/CtKF2BiskT8/Am_xdbtdAgAJ ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: chromium-browser 49.0.2623.108-0ubuntu1.1233 [modified: usr/share/applications/chromium-browser.desktop] ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-21-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity DRM.card0-DP-1: edid-base64: dpms: Off modes: enabled: disabled status: disconnected DRM.card0-DP-2: edid-base64: dpms: Off modes: enabled: disabled status: disconnected DRM.card0-HDMI-A-1: edid-base64: dpms: Off modes: enabled: disabled status: disconnected DRM.card0-HDMI-A-2: edid-base64: dpms: Off modes: enabled: disabled status: disconnected DRM.card0-HDMI-A-3: edid-base64: AP///////wBaYyw6AQEBAQIXAQOAPCJ4Lu7Vo1ZQnyYQUFS/74CzAKlAlQCQQIGAgUBxTwEBAjqAGHE4LUBYLEUAVVAhAAAeAAAA/wBUQUYxMzAyMDY3MDcKAAAA/QAyTA9TEgAKICAgICAgAAAA/ABWWDI3NzAgU0VSSUVTAaICAyLxT5AFBAMCBwYfFBMSERYVASMJfweDAQAAZQMMABAAAjqAGHE4LUBYLEUAVVAhAAAeAR2AGHEcFiBYLCUAVVAhAACeAR0AclHQHiBuKFUAVVAhAAAejArQiiDgLRAQPpYAVVAhAAAYAjqA0HI4LUAQLEWAVVAhAAAeAAAATQ== dpms: On modes: 1920x1080 1920x1080 1920x1080i 1920x1080i 1920x1080 1920x1080i 1600x1200 1680x1050 1400x1050 1280x1024 1280x1024 1440x900 1280x960 1152x864 1280x720 1280x720 1280x720 1024x768 1024x768 1024x768 832x624 800x600 800x600 800x600 800x600 720x576 720x576i 720x480 720x480 720x480i 720x480i 640x480 640x480 640x480 640x480 640x480 720x400 enabled: enabled status: connected Date: Mon May 2 07:44:21 2016 Desktop-Session: 'ubuntu' '/etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntu:/usr/share/upstart/xdg:/etc/xdg' '/usr/share/ubuntu:/usr/share/gnome:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop' DetectedPlugins: EcryptfsInUse: Yes Env: 'None' 'None' InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-04-29 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160420.1) Load-Avg-1min: 0.49 Load-Processes-Running-Percent: 0.3% MachineType: Shuttle Inc.
