[SOLVED] Google Chrome doesn't render page after lost focus in Awesome

Hello !
I have installed fresh Arch Linux with linux-ck and awesome. After that I have installed google-chrome-stable and started it. Everything works well, but if I opened other application (chrome lost focus) and then got back to the chrome, it freezes. Mouce cursor worked as expected (cursor changed after hovering link, input field, etc) but view was not updated.
Everything works well again if I change desktop to the second and go back to the first again (mod+2, mod+1). Chrome works, responses etc well.
bvg
Did you met something like that ? How can I fix it ?
Edit:
I bet this issue has something in common with hw acceleration. If I run some game on steam, lost focus, got back to the game - it show last rendered screen before focus has been lost (sound is ok, game is responsible but not updates screen).
I use nvidia. Do I need some extra configuration to handle it ?

The problem was `xcompmgr` which caused "freezing" view. I switched it to `unagi` and all of the problems have gone.

Thanks karol!
As stated here, I needed to install xdg-utils too, now it works like a charm.

Google Chrome bookmarks keep showing up after I re-organize them!

Hello! My Google Chrome bookmarks keep showing up after I re-organize them into their appropriate folders on my bookmarks bar.. It's very frustrating because I put a lot of time and effort into keeping everything on my Mac super-organized, just for me to organize everything into folders using the "Bookmark Manager", and then re-open Chrome, to find out that:
-all of my bookmarks are in the "appropriate folders" that i put them in
-all of the bookmarks that were "floaters" (not in a folder previously, just on the bookmarks bar, but were moved into a folder) are returning back to their original positions on the bookmarks bar.. but they are still inside the "folder" as well.. basically creating many duplicate "Favorites" if I then move those into the folders.. and then it repeats over and over
Can anybody help shed some insight on what could be going on here? Thanks!

Hi ..
Try the Chrome Bookmark manager > Bookmark manager - Chrome Help

[SOLVED] Google Chrome does not work on my T61

SOLVED. THIS HAPPENS BECAUSE OF SYMANTEC ENDPOINT PROTECTION.
Hello Everyone.
I wonder if anyone can use Google Chrome on T61.
I got my T61 from Hong Kong 5 months ago and I am using Windows Vista SP1 32 Bit Traditional Chinese.
After I installed Google Chrome, it couldn' t connect to any websites. I had tried to uninstall it and even reinstall my computer, but it still doesn't work. The Internet Explorer does work.
Surprisingly, I can connect to different websites using Google Chrome when I use Windows XP on Virtual PC. It seems that it's related to the OS itself. I will try to use Vista on Virtual PC, but I hope that you guys will be able to solve my problem.
Thanks you very much.
Edwin

It might be helpful to provide some more details such as: will it not install?, will it install and not run?, will it run but give error message?, etc, etc, etc.
Another option may be to use the Google Chrome Help site which has

Safari doesn't render pages ( white pages)

Since I updated to Maverick (from Lion) Safari doesn't render web pages anymore.
The pages loads, but stay blank (all white) , but I can still interact with them ( view pages source and click on any links)
I created a new account, threre everything work perfectly.
I tried to remove all files, cahes, preferences and plugins... but nothing work!
Also, Chrome, Firefox and Opera all work perfectly
Anyone know about a third party app that could cause this
Anyone have any idea on what could be going on ?
Thanks

Try troubleshooting Safari extensions...
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

JSP containing ADF components doesn't render properly after upgrading

The migration seemed to go OK but when I open the JSP, the design view looks very different. It doesn't render any of the objects in the page and it only shows them as rectangular blocks ( like input text) in a tree view.

Hi,
upgrade from which release to which other release ? JSP or JSP with JSF

[SOLVED] Google chrome/chromium freezing when typing in address bar

Hello again everyone, sorry to bother you.
Im using Arch 64 bit + kde.
Recently my chromium began freezing at random when I begin typing in the address bar. Since it persisted after several updates I installed google chrome beta from AUR, and the problem persists there. I've tried deleting the configuration directory to no avail.
I am a web developer and therefore this is kind of extremely annoying, I need more browsers than just Firefox so I thought about asking your help, are there any of you with a 64 bit arch system in which chrome works flawlessly? Did you do anything special?
Im beggining to think this is a chrome bug:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/C … 253b&hl=en
I found as well an old thread here in the forums:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=129632
But I decided to not be a thread necromancer.
My google chrome version is: 18.0.1025.39 beta
My chromium version is: 17.0.963.56
I'm willing to recompile this thing if you think that will help, but I've heard horrible stories about compiling chrome. Any help will be tremendously appreciated.

yes, my card is nvidia 8600GT.
This morning I spent a few experiments.
1. I noticed that if you run full-screen application (game), then when you try to switch to the console - is a black screen without text, a problem arises as in KDE and in xfce, if you switch to the console without running full screen applications, the when switching to the console you can see the shell prompt to login (enter your login and password), both in KDE and in xfce.
I tried to remove the option "VGA = 773" from the boot parameter has the kernel (GRUB), and the problem with switching to the console was gone.
2. I made a nvidia-xconfig, creating a file /etc/x11/xorg.conf, rebooted (with the VGA = 773), and logged in to KDE user denis (yes my name is Denis too ), the name of my new account, the name of the old - user0), and the Problem with switching to the console was gone, at least for now.
I think that the Problem with chromium somehow connected with the fact that the video card is Nvidia and its mode of operation, which hurt when you log in to your account.
How does chromium in KDE in your account until Dennis, I have not tested that particular - will be tested, the result accomplish your goal.
So try to remowe vga=773 from kernel line, and and see how it will work chromium.
But i still dont know, why chromium work fine in xfce, but freezing in KDE...

Google Chrome doesn't open files with any applications

Hey all,
After downloading stuff, it is desirable to open the files downloaded; however this is made difficult on my Arch system because Chrome doesn't know what to open the files with, nor does it ask.
I'm using SLiM, xmonad, and have a rather minimalistic set up.
Secondary to this, Chrome cannot determine by itself whether it is the default browser application.
I don't know where I could provide this information to Chrome, Can anybody help?
Thanks

[SOLVED] Google Chrome vs Chromium

A few months ago while visiting Youtube, I noticed it was asking me to install google chrome. So I realized the Linux version is finally out. So I googled for it and installed it on my Ubuntu laptop under the name of google-chrome. Then I tried to install it on my 64 bit Arch Linux machine. I googled for it, but didn't find anything. I tried to search for it on pacman, but I only found Chromium. I installed it, and it looked exactly the same as my google-chrome on ubuntu.
Today, I got confused whether or not chromium is the same as google-chrome. I read somewhere that chromium is the ported version of windows google-chrome for Linux while there's a separate version of google-chrome for linux, named google-chrome. I don't find any differences between my google-chrom on ubuntu and chromium on Arch, but I'm really confused.
Would be glad if someone tells me what is what.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I just found my answer at: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/ … ogleChrome

Yep that link explains it all straight from the horses mouth so to speak.
Basically chromium is the open source projected created by Google and google-chrome is a slightly modified version, google branded version of the browser that comes in binary form.

Google Chrome Helper is not responding after Mavericks upgrade

Since installing Mavericks on my 2011 Macbook Air, Google Chrome has frozen twice and activity monitor says this is due to a process called google chrome helper.
Chrome Version 30.0.1599.101
The first time, I could not get my machine to respond so I had to do a hard reset. On the next occasion I waited and it started responding again.
Never had this problem on Mountain Lion and I am a chrome tab ****.
Cheers

Here's the last entry in the Chrome dev's forum:
This bug is fixed and the fix will reach the stable channel eventually.
This is an issue with how Activity Monitor determines responsiveness – these processes are running perfectly fine. (We changed chrome to work around that Activity Monitor issue, and the fix will reach you eventually...
That is "dated" about five hours ago (current local time here is 6:23pm, CDT). So there should be a new version of "something" available soon. The reason I say "something" is because several dev's claimed a new version of "Canary" seems to fix this problem. I'm no dev but the concensus seems to be that the 'helper' is actually work/responding fine, as far as Chrome is concerned. But there are some changes and API calls that make Activity Monitor 'think' it's "not responding." Reading that last post, however, leads me to believe that a new version of Chrome will soon be available. I have no idea what "Canary" even is but many may not be using it so the fact that it fixes this problem is irrelevent; the fix needs to be seen by all Chrome users.
Hope this helps. Here a link to that dev thread (80 posts): https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=304860&can=1&q=app%20nap&col spec=ID%20Pri%20M%20Iteration%20ReleaseBlock%20Cr%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20O S%20Modified

[SOLVED] google-chrome update fails

Hi,
Apologies if this is a dumb-basic problem, but for some reason chrome is not updating via pacaur.
I noticed chrome was complaining about being an unsupported version in gmail, and I realised my google-chrome-stable was v38, so I went to update it in pacaur...
pacaur -S google-chrome
:: Package(s) google-chrome not found in repositories, trying AUR...
:: resolving dependencies...
:: looking for inter-conflicts...
AUR Packages (1): google-chrome-43.0.2357.81-1
:: Proceed with installation? [Y/n] y
:: Retrieving package(s)...
:: View google-chrome PKGBUILD? [Y/n] n
[sudo] password for timbeauhk:
/usr/bin/pacaur: line 720: cd: /tmp/pacaurtmp-timbeauhk/google-chrome: No such file or directory
:: Building google-chrome package(s)...
==> ERROR: PKGBUILD does not exist.
:: Could not clean google-chrome
I have just performed a pacman -Syu and all updated.
I have rebooted, even though this should not be necessary.
chrome was not running at the time.
It is likey some other fundamental error/mistake on my part, as not being able to change directory is a pretty basic step to fail on, and hints at a silent mkdir failure?
The dir and privs, from a root perspective, are as follows:
[root@machine timbeauhk]# ls -al /tmp/pacaurtmp-timbeauhk/
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 timbeauhk users 60 Jun 6 13:04 .
drwxrwxrwt 8 root root 180 Jun 6 13:40 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 timbeauhk users 61 Jun 6 13:05 rpc.json
Ideas would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Google Chrome & Lion bug keeps switching app window focus

Since installing Google Chrome, when I type something into the url bar, it immediately switches the Chrome window to the bottom most of all application windows that are open. Very annoying.
For example, if I have 5 app windows open and then in Chrome, start typing in the URL bar, the Chrome window is pushed to the back of all windows. What's weird is although the window is moved to the lowest layer of visibility, as I continue typing, it still is typing in Chome. So no window focus but still abe to type in it.
A very weird bug but also makes Google Chrome almost unusable in Lion. Shame.

I have the same thing. However it is not just Chrome. It often happens when typing in Outlook or Word. It does not happen every time and a reboot often solves the problem. Has anyone else experienced this and - more importantly - found a solution?
I am using an iMac and the only change since upgrading to Lion is that I followed a workaround for NAS access listed at: http://www.alexanderwilde.com/2011/04/os-x-lion-connection-error-with-afp-and-wo rkaround/

Google chrome doesn't open set pages

It opens only the tab page when I have it set to open set pages. I think it opens automatically as well when I do not want that.

Opens automatically?
Check System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
opens only the tab page
