Google Chrome giving segmentation fault in Ubuntu 10.10
« on: November 13, 2011, 12:31:11 PM »
Google Chrome used to work fine on my computer without a problem. Now, whenever I run it, it gives me this:
$ /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome %U

What version of Chrome are you using?
In Soviet Russia, iPhone touch you. Computer shut you down. Mouse click you. Floppy inserts you. Yahoo answers you. Man in TV watches you. Computer game addicts you. Guitar shreds you. Motherboard fries you. The laughter in manslaughter is put back in.

    It seems to me that Chrome attempts to perform an update, but fails.
    You are currently using Ubuntu 10.10; Ubuntu 11.10 is out already, you are two versions behind. Why don't you perform an upgrade to the latest Ubuntu release first?

    I have the most stable version of Google Chrome that there is right now. I haven't switched to 11.10 since I'm not that enthusiastic about the Unity layout. I personally like the Gnome interface and haven't used Unity. Is there an option in 11.10 that allows you to switch to the Gnome interface? Because if there is, I would probably switch. :)

      Hello,
      have you ever considered using KDE or XFCE as your main desktop environment? These are available with kUbuntu and xUbuntu. You can download a live cd, try it and see if you feel comfortable with these DEs.

      Also, I have to tell you that Unity is based on GNOME, but it looks a lot different ;)

      Do you think that 11.10 will fix my problem?
