Chromium random and frequent freezes/crashes with KDE

Hello folks,
as sated on the topic I keep on getting random and frequent crashes with either Chromium and Chrome with KDE 4.13.3.
The freeze/crash doesn't happen when doing a specific task and can occur at anytime.
The way it happens is that Chromium freeze up and than if I minimize the window and maximize it again the Chromium window just disappears and at that point all I can do is killing it manually.
The wiki suggests that libcanberra-pulse is the reason that cause those freezes and should be removed, however after a quick look up into the system it doesn't seem that I have it installed.
[latrina@chromebookC720 ~]$ sudo pacman -Q |grep libcanberra
libcanberra 0.30-4
Here's the output of the crash .
Thanks

I will reply to myself.. I am not sure anymore that this is an issue that has to do specifically with KDE, since according to this guy it might be something related with libglx.
A quick look at my Xorg.0.log tells me that glx is loaded correctly.
[ 302.233] (II) LoadModule: "glx"
[ 302.234] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
[ 302.235] (II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
I am going to shoot a noob question here, is this a generic open source driver or do I need a specific one for my graphic card? I do have a intel i915.
Also what's the package that handles libglx*? I'd try removing it and install it again. I mean until yesterday I had Chrome and Chromium perfectly working on Arch and the same kernel, than I had to replace the ssd with a bigger one and I decided to start from scratch with just what I needed, and here you have it both Chrome and Chromium miss behaving ..

  • Random and frequent reboots

    Hi, I pre-ordered a N900 two months ago. I finally got it yesterday, and since then I've been experiencing random and frequent reboots of the device. I don't have to do anything fancy, it simply reboots from time to time without warning. It's a real pain.
    This is being discuss in the maemo website [1] and there's two bugs [2] & [3] open on this issue. I'd like to know if I should return the device as many are doing or if I should wait for a prompt firmware upgrade. I don't want to wait another two months for a replacement (I think the supplies are a bit short due to high demand) but I don't want to stick to a possible erratic hardware.
    Please Nokia, give me some advice. Thanks. 
    [1] http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=35055
    [2] https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6334
    [3] https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6350

    I have N900 for almost a month, and rebooted me once. I started installing an application, canceled, when i tried to install it again rebooted. After reboot i tried to install same application, worked fine.
    I'm using firmware version 1.2009.42-11 atm, works better with multitasking then previous version. Even with previous firmware, NEVER froze and rebooted once (i think thats pretty awsome for a brand new OS). It has amazing stability, and trust me, i use it A LOT, and 80% of the time i have it online.

    Had same problem on my iPad2 with the original 8.0 release.  I ended up wiping it completely clean and doing a reset and restore from backup.  That seemed to fix my issues.  I had the same problem when 7 came out and did the same wipe and restore to get everything working well.

  • Since the upgrade to 4.0.1, both of my mac osx computers get multiple popups, despite being enable, and slow tracking and frequent freezing

    Since the upgrade to 4.0.1, both of my mac osx computers get multiple popups and popunders, despite the block popups being enabled, as well as slow tracking(at regular card game sites, and frequent freezing of open windows.

    Honestly I would never run both Win 7 & XP at the same time in a VM. 7 needs at least 4GB to run properly and uses more resources then XP.
    I personally use VMware Fusion and XP. At this time there is no software, that I'm aware of or use, that does not run on XP. So for my Mac Win VM purpose I only run XP with the software in need to use in Windows. This work very well for me. I have 2 CPUs and 3GBs of RAM assigned to XP. Leaving the other 2 CPU cores, 4 HT cores, and 5GBs of RAM for OS X.
    Not sure why you need, or want, to run both versions of Windows at the same time. I don't see the need as stated above.

  • PSE 12 crashes randomly and frequently

    OS: Win 8.1 x64. I downloaded PSE 12 trial (I currently use PSE 11 and it behaves the same). I created a new library (did not convert old one) and imported around 10,000 pictures. When trying to do almost anything in Organizer it sometimes crashes with this info:

    I've re-created the library a few times and also tried the "Repair and Optimize" functions with no improvement.

    Also Photoshop Elements Editor just disappears after intit with no error message. Same when trying to invoke from organizer. Tried to download/install 12.1 update for PE but hit the error code U44M1P2003.bug. Tried all suggestions with no help. All of these issues have been around quite a while and Adobe has done nothing but waste my time with unanswered questions and non productive chat sessions. Massive goat rope.

  • Adobe Indesign CC2014 and mac freeze crash at dialog box "nouveautés"

    Hi !
    Adobe Indesign CC2014 and the mac freeze crash when the dialog box "nouveautés" appears !
    The Indesign CC work fine and doesn't crash, but the CC2014 freeze on this dialog box !
    Is there a possibility to do this dialog box don't appears ? In preference file to edit on the disc for exemple ? or a file to delete ?
    Thanks

    Thanks pooja2087 but that doesn't work !
    But I have news :
    I have started without extensions (with "Maj") and then the windows "Nouveautés" appears but totally white, but that is working, i can close the windows and work with indesign. But the windows appears on next launch because I cannot clic on the "don't show next time" case (the windows is white).
    Then this windows is the problem (probably directX function that crash my old computer (this one is old)).
    Then how can I desactivate this window on startup ?

  • Imac freezes/crashes with any software

    Purchased this imac (intel) december 2009.  a few months later the freezing/crashing screen started.  I've since downloaded all software upgrades for OS, itunes, word, excel, icloud, leopard, lion etc.  I can't seem to get any answers thru the online/phone staff.
    A few weeks ago I notice that my "toolbar" actually has white spots/dots and when it's about to freeze, this white spots/dots start to jiggle.
    Also, when using Microsoft Word, the option button which is "blue" also have white spots/dots and it jiggles before freezing/crashing.
    I'm so confused...Do I restore my whole computer?  Do I take the desktop into the apple store? 
    If anyone wants a pic....i have some....

    Why are you convinced it's software? I would recommend running Apple Hardware Test in Extended Mode. Each pass will take 30-60 minutes in Extended Mode. If no errors appear after the first pass run in Extended Mode another 2-3 times to be sure. If you get errors write them down and make an appointment at your local Apple Store or AASP?

  • Safari and Mail.app crash with SIGSEGV after Monolingual / upgrade

    In order to upgrade to snow leopard, I had to free a bunch of disk space. So, I foolishly ran Monolingual to remove unused languages. I don't recall exactly which I removed, but I do remember that I did not remove Japanese. I then upgraded to Snow Leopard, but now I have a Safari and a Mail.app that crash consistently with segmentation faults.
    Mail.app crashes anytime I attempt to view a message with Japanese characters in it. I click the subject line, it tries to display it, and then crashes with a segmentation fault in Dispatch queue: com.apple.root.default-priority in the com.apple.datadetectorscore _FillNextTokenInCache method.
    Safari crashes in HistoryTextCache caching from the method com.apple.SearchKit UniCharParserGetNextWord after a few pages (5m) of browsing. Doesn't seem to matter what pages I'm viewing. Although I can force it to crash just after successfully rendering a page with japanese characters by visiting such a page.
    They repeatably crash the same way. Is there any way to fix this without having to reinstall the OS?

    I'm still having this problem. Anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks,
    eric

  • Firefox is crashing randomly and frequently, no matter what page I'm viewing.

    My firefox has been crashing daily, and not just once or twice but constantly. It happens most when I'm on ebay.com, facebook.com, or myspace.com. But it is not limited to those three pages. I thought it might have to do with the Adobe problem, but I've updated my flash player (a few different times) and I'm still getting numerous crashes. I've even tried removing Adobe completely and reinstalling from scratch. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with this "www.wq32.com"... Occasionally when attempting to connect to a site, this URL takes over and redirects me. I'm sure it is some sort of spyware or virus but I haven't been able to pinpoint it, and none of my antivirus programs have detected any issues. I've even wiped the entire hard drive out and reinstalled Windows, still can't get rid of either problem. None of these issues occur in IE, only firefox. I refuse to switch though, I've been a die-hard firefox user for probably as long as it's been public. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Nope, still getting crazy random crashes. I just got a notification for Java's update. Going to install now and hope and pray that it fixes it.

  • Unstable and Random reboot or software crash with 1536 MB RAM

    Let see if any of you are a good tech..
    I have this MSI KT3 Ultra 333 motherboard (its almost 2 years old) with an MSI Ti4200
    The motherboard is working perfectly fine.
    It has TWO memory sticks of 512 MB PC2700 DDR dimms   They are in slot 1 and slot 2.  for a total of 1 GB
    Everything is working perfectly fine until you add 1 more dimm of 512 into slot 3
    When i put the third 512 MB into slot 3  (to get the 1536MB), the computer randomly reboot and softwares become unstable.  
    Unpluggin internal devices like DVD, extra drives doesn't fix the problem.
    This is not a virus worm spyware problem either..  The issue seems to be hardware.
    Dimm 1 = Kingston DDR 333 (bought 2 years ago)
    Dimm 2 = No name DDR 333 ) Bought 1 year ago)
    Dimm 3 = Kingston DDR 333 (earlier model bought today)
    If i take out the new Dimm, everything works fine.. if i leave the new Dimm 3 everything crash or randomly reboot.
    I tried swapping Dimms places  but no go.  
    I though the new stick in slot 3 was deffect so i removed it  and put it and the second computer (a compaq) which would bring that second computer to total of 1GB.  passed the test.
    So it doesn't seem to be the memory stick.
    Why can't i add a 512 MB dimm to the MSI KT3 Ulra 333 ?
    All i want to do is to have 1.5 GB of ram but im stuck at 1GB.

    The thing is...
    They're all the same speed according to their numbers
    i.e :  KVR 333 X 64 C 25 / 512
    Its typical to kingston label where KVR ( kingston value ram) , 333 (333) , x?, 64, 25 (2.5) / 512 (512MB)
    The second dimm is an Infineon HYB25D2566800BT-6 , but it is not listed on infineon webpage.  the 256 in the serial means 256Mb dimm on their website but it gives 512MB still.  I think theres a typo on infineon website.
    The third dimm is also a KVR 333 2.5 / 512  (just a newer one)
    Anyway, what i did is i borrowed a 512 MB dimm Samsung from a colegue and removed the Infineon.. (yes i know, but i don't have access to a third Kingston)
    I moved the newer kingston from slot3 to slot 2.
    Now i have 2 kingston next to each other... then i added the Samsung 512 2.5 in third slot.
    I unplugged all neons to gain some power juice..
    The current setup is now
    Slot 1= Kingston PC2700 333  2.5 (2 years old)
    Slot 2= Kingston PC2700 333  2.5 (new model)
    Slot 3= Samsung PC2700 333  2.5  (sold with presario compaq that use MSI boards)
    Total = 1536 MB
    Im gona give it a try.
    Also, each of those dimm use certain known memory chips with the serial starting with either WDxxxx or WENxxxx , it seems some of those memory manufacturers get their memory chips from the same chip manufacturers...  And most motherboard manufacturers usualy have a compatibility list with those chip manufacturers...
    Anyway, it's sort of a chaos industry out there.

  • Everytime i open a pdf or try to use acrobat in any way, the program freezes/crashes with error message "(not responding)." Ive called Adobe and had remote support, reinstalled acrobat, repaired it, etc.  Any Ideas?

    I can't use acrobat XI at all, so ive resorted back to plain Reader X even though I pay for the Acrobat Pro.  I have a new Samsung laptop with 6GB dual drive RAM and Windows 8.1 - 64 bit.  That should be enough to run Acrobat

    Hi Ryan ,
    Please follow the below mentioned steps and see if that helps.
    Delete all the files from following folders:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\SLStore
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\SLCache
    And, delete all files from following folder except cache.db
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\ Adobe PCD
    Launch the product and activate again with new serial number
    Or you can try these as well .
    Please disable protected mode and try.
    Disable Enhanced Security option.
    If possible, Uninstall and re-install Acrobat.

  • Frequent blank screen/freezes/crashes with OSX Mountain Lion

    I updated to OSX Mountain Lion a few weeks ago. Now, after startup, my computer continuously gets slower with the number of applications that have been opened (even if I have closed them after I'm done with them) until it finally goes to a black screen where I can only see/move the mouse but nothing else- I don't even get the SBBOD. Ultimately I shut it down because its unresponsive. After rebooting, it most often tells me the culprit applications are either Safari or Adobe Reader, but occassionally its others like MS Word, iPhoto, and R. I'd like to think my system is powerful enough not be slowed down by such trivial applications (15" MBP Early 2011, 2.3 GHz i7, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD). On a side note, I've upgraded to both OSX Lion and then OSX Mountain Lion without ever doing a clean install- if that may be an aggravating factor? I thought disk space might be an issue so I downloaded MacKeeper to clean up my HD. While it recovered a lot of space on my HD by removing duplicates it hasn't done anything to improve this situation. I've also used the disk utility to repair disk permissions and repair disk. Any ideas? Should I call Apple?
    Other symptoms:
    -iStatpro and other items on dashboard screen are always extremely delayed
    -I can tell its going to happen soon when pressing command+space doesn't open the spotlight menu. But when I look over to iStat it says its running at normal T, fans are turning fast, and there ~3-4 GB RAM free...

  • Seemingly random X server freezes/crashes - "EQ overflowing"

    I assume not knowing where a question belongs screams "Newbie Corner", doesn't it?
    I am running a relatively fresh Arch setup with Awesome wm, and recently my X-server has started freezing up completely randomly. The only pattern I have been able to see is that I usually have Google+ opened in the active Firefox tab, but considering that I find myself there comparably often and I can see no way in which a specific page on a specific browser could crash the X server (although, when I once had the wm survive through one of the freezes a pop-up informed me that a script on the Google+ page had caused problems, I unfortunately could not take any notes in time though since another freeze occured immediately after and actually crashed this time), it could just be a coincidence.
    I have had the problem for a while now, but after a recent upgrade it seems to have become more frequent. Due to this install only being about a month old I've installed quite a lot and I have upgraded twice since the initial "problematic" upgrade, so I don't believe I could find a culprit very easily.
    I do have an Xorg log with the error that seems to cause it ("(EE) [mi] EQ overflowing.  Additional events will be discarded until existing events are processed"), but Google results don't match my problem and I don't know much about the X server so I will not be able to come up with a solution myself. This is my error log.
    Interestingly, mpd seems to get stuck in a loop as well when this happens, which to my understanding it should not since the two are not related. Do correct me if they are, of course.
    At this point I really don't know what else to do, the only hints I have left is that according to my log I replugged my mouse just before it happened the last time, but I don't believe it's the problem since that did definitely not cause it before, and the fact that I have a faulty driver for my touchpad, which has been a problem since the beginning I've been too lazy to fix so far (so much more exciting stuff to play with!).
    So, if you've read this far I'd really like to thank you for taking the time to do so and I hope you can tell me what the hell is making my Arch Linux look like Windows... This better not happen when I'm trying to show off, seriously.

  • 13" rMBP (Mid 2014) Freezing/Crashing with Yosemite

    I've been having these issues non-stop since this morning - I thought I had the problem fixed but things have become a lot worse!
    Here are the steps that (caused?) the issue - and what I've done about it so far:
    Woke up this morning and used MBP for about 15 minutes, closed lid and took to work.
    On arrival at work - screen completely dark on wake - could hear volume keys beeping - tried multiple restarts - no joy.
    After ~1 hour of restarting/trying safe mode and external monitor, the computer suddenly starts working (with external monitor only - no primary display detected in settings) - I decide not to push my luck and use it as a headless computer for the rest of the workday.
    I restart the computer at the end of the day and notice the primary display is now showing windows - but the screen backlight is completely dark and non-responsive.
    I reset the NVRAM - computer now boots fine into Yosemite. Screen is back on and bright.
    Computer now crashes ~every 5 minutes. Completely freezes, even in safe mode. Have tried resetting NVRAM (and fixing permission in safe mode). Sometimes the computers mouse and keyboard even freeze on the black boot screen, or even as I'm typing my login password. I have not been able to use the laptop for longer than 5 minutes straight.
    Has anyone else had these issues? They seem to be delightfully random at the moment - am unsure why the screen problem started, or disappeared as suddenly only to be replaced by a much nastier problem...

    On an older 13" 2012 MBP with Intel HD4K. (and an SSD - if there are no paging/swapping issues otherwise), it shows
