When you say it fails to start download, nothing happens? In the download bar or in downloads pages (ctrl+j) A few suggestions: * Change the downloads destination folder, to your home folder for example (or check the option to always ask where to download) * Try with a clean profile (move ~/.config/chromium away) * Try with 4.0.223.5 (latest in-tree), downloads folder code still had problems recently, even though afaik downloads worked for me in 4.0.222.6
Just changing the download location fixed the issue, even if I changed it to the same folder it was currently set to. The problem didn't persist with the update to 4.0.223.5 either.
