The crash, if you'd like to call it a crash, was about gpu hardware acceleration. I tried to append --disable-gpu from console and this made it go away plus the browser itself is much faster now in rendering. I then disabled it permamently in the options.
The device is a nvidia tegra, the binary drivers don't work with 14.04 and I believe the opensource version which I am using at the moment does not allow gpu acceleration. Is there another bug open regarding gpu acceleration with the tegra open source videodrivers? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1664147 Title: Chromium on trusty too outdated; not supported by gmail Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: As of Feb 13 2017, the chromium version on trusty is 53.x which is at least a couple of versions behind chrome-stable. Gmail displays this message, "This version of Chrome is no longer supported. Please upgrade to asupported browser." Core functionality in gmail works fine, but I'm not sure of security ramifications of running an old browser, particularly when google advises against it.
