Title: When browsing Google Map's Satellite view in Chrome or Firefox the screen freezes and goes black, occasionally control is returned to user Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Affects Ubuntu 14.04.1, resolved 16.10 When viewing the satellite view in Google Maps with Google Chrome or Firefox the screen will become unresponsive and then go black. This occurs on other websites too but this is the most reproducible. Occasionally the screen returns and control is given back to the user, but often only the mouse works and desktop elements will not move around the screen when clicked and dragged. I have a Radeon 390x graphics card, a MSI Z97 Gaming 5 Motherboard and am running Kubuntu 16.04.1 LTS. This is a dual boot device with Windows 10 and have not seen any hardware issues in the Event Viewer. I filed this log here as the file that appeared in the dmesg log is part of the linux project "/build/linux- R0TiM8/linux-4.4.0/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_object.c". This is resolved when upgrading to Ubuntu 16.10 (uses kernel 4.8), so perhaps the commit that resolves this is not backported to Ubuntu's 16.04.1's 4.4 kernel. Bug I also filed on kernel.org's Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177041 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1635851/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
