They've decided to once again reinvent the same GUI in the latest version of Chrome, but with some added dysfunctionalities or incompatibilities with more or less standard compositor configurations. Its context menus all of a sudden had a rather thick transparent...

It's likely there is a more proper way of doing it, not needing to uninstall, but I just lost my patience at this point.

Maybe still needs the non-GTK versions, a "neutral" one and a kde and a qt5 one, I can't really tell. I was about to uninstall them all, but occurred to me to try to uninstall just the gtk one, and voilá, I had kdialog on chrome-based-browsers again.


Why can't things be set by text files or environment variables with sane standards?...

These are the settings I use with Google Chrome to get most of my machine (Dell Vostro 1015/ 3Gig ram)

Type about:flags in the adress bar or copy paste the chrome urls


GPU rasterization
chrome://flags/#enable-gpu-rasterization
Set to Enabled


Number of raster threads
chrome://flags/#num-raster-threads
Set to "Number of threads/cores your cpu have"


These two will increase Javascript...

Short story shorter: two Debian 8 installs on the same PC, different HDs, same username of an user. Why not just symlink /home/user/.config/chromium in the new install? Well, it seems your extensions and their data get erased.

Story's moral: do backups of such folders first. Even if it works with mozilla (if I recall), Google could well be "nah, we better delete this stuff".

Just pointing out just in case someone finds oneself annoyed by Chrome/ium seemingly entering in neverending loops and reading or writing who-knows-what in the HDD for too long. I have the impression that the new Opera behaves somewhat better in this regard, but I really haven't used it as much, so could be just a matter of time until it hangs just as much.

Unfortunately, however, the new GUI is still somewhat like just a crippled Chrome GUI -- scrolling the wheel over the tab-bar...
