Hello, I am also experiencing black boxes for input areas in Chrome, however using guacamole RDP to windows systems (virtual machines on Hyper-V) only (my linux vms are servers only). Similar like you, no problems with Firefox. I tested with Guacamole 1.0 and staging/1.2.0. No clue though, whether this is a Guacamole or Chrome or other issue. Best Regards, Joachim
