After upgrading to Chrome 124 it won't display a window when starting. Process seems running and there is a chrome shown on taskbar with the title of last site. If starting with new profile it works. After downgrading back to 123 I'm no longer signed in to Google (for the syncing of bookmarks etc., it shows it's paused and have to sign in again). Not sure if it's related. Starting with --disable-extensions doesn't make a difference. No idea where it gets stuck on. Reproducible: Always
Running on KDE/wayland btw.
try running Chrome with flag --ozone-platform=wayland > issues.chromium.org/issues/329678163
That seems to fix it, when running from CLI like this: google-chrome-stable --ozone-platform=wayland Running from the shortcut after modification of the launcher it still doesn't work however whilst I do see the parameter listed. ~ $ grep Exec /usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop Exec=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --ozone-platform=wayland %U Exec=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --ozone-platform=wayland Exec=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --incognito --ozone-platform=wayland ~ $ ps -Af | grep chrome | grep wayland freaky 71336 71304 1 13:02 ? 00:00:00 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=gpu-process --ozone-platform=wayland --crashpad-handler-pid=0 --enable-crash-reporter=, --change-stack-guard-on-fork=enable --gpu-preferences=WAAAAAAAAAAgAAAEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABgAAEAAAA4AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAGAAAAAAAAAAYAAAAAAAAAAgAAAAAAAAACAAAAAAAAAAIAAAAAAAAAA== --shared-files --field-trial-handle=3,i,10107289057580396726,17608092674859859391,262144 --enable-features=ParallelDownloading --variations-seed-version=20240423-050130.785000 freaky 71368 71307 1 13:02 ? 00:00:00 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --crashpad-handler-pid=0 --enable-crash-reporter=, --extension-process --change-stack-guard-on-fork=enable --ozone-platform=wayland --lang=en-US --num-raster-threads=4 --enable-main-frame-before-activation --renderer-client-id=8 --time-ticks-at-unix-epoch=-1713906761179074 --launch-time-ticks=49784482170 --shared-files=v8_context_snapshot_data:100 --field-trial-handle=3,i,10107289057580396726,17608092674859859391,262144 --enable-features=ParallelDownloading --variations-seed-version=20240423-050130.785000 freaky 71405 71307 0 13:02 ? 00:00:00 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --crashpad-handler-pid=0 --enable-crash-reporter=, --change-stack-guard-on-fork=enable --ozone-platform=wayland --lang=en-US --num-raster-threads=4 --enable-main-frame-before-activation --renderer-client-id=9 --time-ticks-at-unix-epoch=-1713906761179074 --launch-time-ticks=49784567444 --shared-files=v8_context_snapshot_data:100 --field-trial-handle=3,i,10107289057580396726,17608092674859859391,262144 --enable-features=ParallelDownloading --variations-seed-version=20240423-050130.785000 freaky 71406 71307 12 13:02 ? 00:00:02 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --crashpad-handler-pid=0 --enable-crash-reporter=, --extension-process --change-stack-guard-on-fork=enable --ozone-platform=wayland --lang=en-US --num-raster-threads=4 --enable-main-frame-before-activation --renderer-client-id=5 --time-ticks-at-unix-epoch=-1713906761179074 --launch-time-ticks=49784568778 --shared-files=v8_context_snapshot_data:100 --field-trial-handle=3,i,10107289057580396726,17608092674859859391,262144 --enable-features=ParallelDownloading --variations-seed-version=20240423-050130.785000 freaky 71426 71307 0 13:02 ? 00:00:00 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --crashpad-handler-pid=0 --enable-crash-reporter=, --change-stack-guard-on-fork=enable --ozone-platform=wayland --lang=en-US --num-raster-threads=4 --enable-main-frame-before-activation --renderer-client-id=77 --time-ticks-at-unix-epoch=-1713906761179074 --launch-time-ticks=49784725854 --shared-files=v8_context_snapshot_data:100 --field-trial-handle=3,i,10107289057580396726,17608092674859859391,262144 --enable-features=ParallelDownloading --variations-seed-version=20240423-050130.785000 freaky 71437 71307 0 13:02 ? 00:00:00 /opt/google/chrome/chrome --type=renderer --crashpad-handler-pid=0 --enable-crash-reporter=, --extension-process --change-stack-guard-on-fork=enable --ozone-platform=wayland --lang=en-US --num-raster-threads=4 --enable-main-frame-before-activation --renderer-client-id=78 --time-ticks-at-unix-epoch=-1713906761179074 --launch-time-ticks=49784753338 --shared-files=v8_context_snapshot_data:100 --field-trial-handle=3,i,10107289057580396726,17608092674859859391,262144 --enable-features=ParallelDownloading --variations-seed-version=20240423-050130.785000 ...
