<pre>Sorry folks, I am new to this and will do my best.
I first reported this bug to Google. They got all the data here:
<a href="https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=467821">https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=467821</a>
and told me that this is a bug in the r600 driver.
Back in December I updated from 32 bit Ubuntu 12.04 to 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04 and
have had major stability issues with Chrome ever since, particularly while
using Google Maps.
This URL
<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Los+Gatos,+CA+95033/@37.1893925,-121.9894751,11z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x808e39d2fbec72d9:0x4b03e7246671be9b">https://www.google.com/maps/place/Los+Gatos,+CA+95033/@37.1893925,-121.9894751,11z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x808e39d2fbec72d9:0x4b03e7246671be9b</a>
was the first time I've managed to capture something that crashes chrome
reliably, however.
At their suggestion I tried running chrome with --disable-gpu and at least with
a simple test the problem went away.
I think these drivers are the default in Ubuntu now, but they seem to be
causing me a lot of grief.
You can pickup what Google got from the crash report Chrome sent to them from
the bug listed above.
And for the time being I will figure out how to run with --disable-gpu on all
the time to see if that avoids my issue.
Failing that I guess it's time to figure out how to go back to ATI's drivers.
If there is additional data I can provide somehow, I am happy to try. I'm no
wizard, but I will follow instructions and get whatever you need if possible.
Thanks.</pre>
