Chromium-bin runs on my system. This is of low importance to me (just playing around, thought I'd try it out), but figured I'd mention it.

A gdb backtrace might prove more useful than a system call trace...
This seems to only be a amd64 problem. works fine on all my x86 boxes but same problem on my amd64 box.
Hi, thanks for the report! There were some known crash issues recently, most notably tbhis one: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=28526 I've just committed 4.0.266.0 to portage, can you try and report if it also fixes your crash issues?
Crash disappeared for me after emerging (for other reasons) unstable x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3 instead of x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-185.18.36, not sure if it's related 1260124572: Started emerge on: Dec 06, 2009 19:36:12 1260124572: *** emerge --newuse --deep --update world 1260124580: >>> emerge (1 of 5) x11-libs/libvdpau-0.2 to / 1260124607: ::: completed emerge (1 of 5) x11-libs/libvdpau-0.2 to / 1260124613: >>> emerge (2 of 5) app-admin/eselect-1.2.8 to / 1260124621: ::: completed emerge (2 of 5) app-admin/eselect-1.2.8 to / 1260124621: >>> emerge (3 of 5) app-admin/eselect-opengl-1.1.1-r2 to / 1260124629: ::: completed emerge (3 of 5) app-admin/eselect-opengl-1.1.1-r2 to / 1260124629: >>> emerge (4 of 5) x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3 to / 1260124660: ::: completed emerge (4 of 5) x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3 to / 1260124660: >>> emerge (5 of 5) media-video/nvidia-settings-190.42 to / 1260124690: ::: completed emerge (5 of 5) media-video/nvidia-settings-190.42 to / I've also run lafilefixer --justfixit (as suggested while emerging eselect-opengl)

www-client/chromium-4.0.251.0 works on my amd64 system. Both www-client/chromium-4.0.260.0 and www-client/chromium-4.0.266.0 segfault.

So it seems this appears only on stable amd64 systems with nvidia binary drivers? (like it already happened before at http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=16800 ) (In reply to comment #9) Appending -ggdb to CFLAGS and disabling stripping should be enough indeed, the missing parts of the backtrace come from other packages not built with debug infos. It seems to fail on a memory allocation test? (from base/process_util_linux.cc:563)
It is not ONLY AMD64 + nvidia. I have AMD64 and ati(xorg) driver and I have the same problem: Segfault all the time.

Okay, updating to x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.29 fixed the problem for me. Note that 190.29 is older than what others had updated to. Chromium starts without crashing. This required upgrading to app-admin/eselect-opengl-1.1.1-r2 and app-admin/eselect-1.2.7, which also requrired a run of "lafilefixer --justfixit" per comment 7 from Daniele Gaffuri. I also ran revdep-rebuild to be safe.
CC-ing the soon-to-be co-maintainer of this package ;) So to sum it up, current versions again have a problem with "old" binary nvidia drivers (i.e < 190.29 for recent cards): as there were already some problems with these versions, we'll probably add a postinst warning message, including recommendation to upgrade to 190.xx if it crashes Radek, can you get a backtrace in your case?
I have rebuilded in debug and the problem went away. The rebuild forced some update, so I quess it was different problem and was fixed else where.

This worked for me. nvidia-drivers-190.29 makes chromium work fine.

I'm on x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3, chromium-bin-9999 (rev 34565) It crashes here.

Does this happen for you with tagged releases? (4.0.260.0_p33405 or 4.0.266.0_p33995 for -bin)
Not AMD64 only! This happens on x86 for me, too. I'm on nvidia 180.60, chromium 4.0.266.0-r1.
Based on the reports here, things work fine with x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3 (please report any issues with the -bin package in separate bugs, this is only about www-client/chromium). If you have >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3 and still experience chromium crashes, please re-open or request re-opening this bug.
