Re: Chromium 18.0.1025.151 segfaults a lot

Same problem here with a fresh install under vmware at random when i start typing. For example i press the letter "o" to search something and it segfaults so i restart and press the same letter and the there it goes again but if i then press another letter first its fine for a while.....

Posting to confirm that the bug no longer persists when downgrading to the previous build.

The chromium package got an upgrade: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … 440e30ee22

Let's hope this is fixed now.

The upgrade seems to have worked for me too. Not a segfault in sight after about 3-4 hours of use.

Yup moving from 18.0.1025.151-1 → 18.0.1025.151-3 seems to fix it (no crashes since the upgrade).
I must admit I've been quite surprised to see the error being displayed in dmesg.

I'm no longer experiencing crashes now that I updated to 18.0.1025.151-3

To others experiencing crashing still I would disable all of your addons and check any experimental features that are enabled in about:flags and test again.  The omnibox bug seems to be fixed now, so an addon may be causing the seg faults.

Re: Chromium 18.0.1025.151 segfaults a lot

All AddOns are deactivated, even the automatics has been disabled and yet it still crashes. Is there any x86_64 user who confirms if bug's gone?. I think that bugfix only works for 32 bits, Could it be?

The new package is much more stable, I advise everyone that downgraded to get the newest.
