[SOLVED] Chromium crashes with accented characters in omnibox

When I type an accented character in the search bar/omnibox (ä ö ü õ), Chromium (Version 62.0.3202.62 (Developer Build) (64-bit)) crashes completely with the following message. Can anyone reproduce this bug?

[10211:10239:1025/105846.249567:ERROR:browser_gpu_channel_host_factory.cc(108)] Failed to launch GPU process.

Re: [SOLVED] Chromium crashes with accented characters in omnibox

I failed to reproduce it (version 62.0.3202.62).  Perhaps something from your candidates (i.e. history) triggers the crash?  Are you able to reproduce the crash with empty history and cache?  Does displaying accented candidates with non-accented input result in a crash (e.g. typing "ngstr" for "Ångström")?

Re: [SOLVED] Chromium crashes with accented characters in omnibox

I tried the following:

1) wiped clear my browser data, history etc since the beggining

2) deleted my browser profile

3) reinstalled Chromium

4) tried copy-pasting the character "Å" into the search box (still crashes)

All of them to no avail.
