There are no crash reports. I looked in the two bug report sites mentioned in the man page for chromium, and did not see anything that looked relevant. I tried removing intel-media-va-driver | intel-media-va-driver-non-free, which required removing va-driver-all. No go. chromium just sits there as a background process, and I have to kill it. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
