google-chrome segfaults on Slackware64 -current

TL_CLD · 03-29-2012, 02:53 AM

I did a slackpkg update/upgrade-all on my boxes this morning (Thinkpad T420 and Sun Ultra 27) and now google-chrome 17.0.963.83 dies with a segmentation fault on both boxes.

I've created the package using the google-chrome slackbuild from 13.37.

Anybody else experiencing this? Is there perhaps a fix floating around out there?

try rebuild the Google Chrome and you probably want to upgrade to Google Chrome 18

TL_CLD · 03-29-2012, 09:38 AM

Same deal. It still dies:

Pretty odd stuff.

Yeah indeed because my Google Chrome installation works fine here on -Current (32 bit systems)
have you make sure that you have updated your -Current to the latest batch of updates?

TL_CLD · 03-30-2012, 01:06 AM

Yup, I've got the latest batch of updates, with the glibc update included.

Maybe it's a 64 bit issue?

Oh well, I'll survive. I expect Pat and crew will have it sorted out sooner or later, and in the meantime I'll just use Opera instead.

willysr · 03-30-2012, 01:13 AM

did you use multilib?

TL_CLD · 03-30-2012, 07:34 AM

No multilib. Pure Slackware64 -current.

Same problem after rebooting.

google-chrome

Segmentation fault

However, I can run google-chrome as root

root> google-chrome --user-data-dir /home/budman

Works fine.

Digging deeper to see why.

will let you know if I find anything

EDIT: Some results

root> mount -o exec /dev/shm

google-chrome runs fine - I close it and restart, back to same issue

do you have shared memory partition on your /etc/fstab?
it's something like this on my system

Code:

tmpfs            /dev/shm         tmpfs       defaults         0   0

Yes, thats ok.

I renamed the google-chrome dir under .config and had a good version that wouldn't segfault.
Started adding back directories to see if anything triggers.
I am able to run google-chrome now, however, I see the message, but no longer segfaults.

Edit: found the problem file that was causing segfault
".config/google-chrome/Service State"
Once I renamed it, no more segfault.

I did try reinstalling glib2, and downloaded lastest version in installed that.
Same issue, but removing the file seems to have worked for now.

Renaming the Service State file on my system changes nothing; Google Chrome still segfaults on a regular basis.

It's really dreadfully annoying, as all tabs are lost when it segfaults.

Can you check your sound device order.

I found mine added a new module for hdmi, I forced the option sequence order and now google-chrome runs fine.
No more segfaults.

/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf
# force to higher card number
options snd_hda_intel index=1
options snd_hda_codec_hdmi index=2

> aplay -l| grep card
card 0: Live [SB Live! 5.1], device 0: emu10k1 [ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback]
card 0: Live [SB Live! 5.1], device 2: emu10k1 efx [Multichannel Capture/PT Playback]
card 0: Live [SB Live! 5.1], device 3: emu10k1 [Multichannel Playback]

> cat /proc/asound/modules
0 snd_emu10k1

I noticed the card order changed when clementine and amarok crashed.
When I ran alsamixer, it was showing HDMI as the default, even when I ran alasconf.

See if this helps.

TL_CLD · 05-24-2012, 01:28 AM

I only have snd_hda_intel, which also is the only option in alsamixer.

So this seems to not be the solution for me. Sadly. I would've loved if it was something as simple as you described.

I guess I'm just going to have to wait for Pat to update the parts of the system that is causing this, be it the kernel or something else.

I'm running chrome with current-64 with no issues. Running it on a couple machines -- a fresh install and an old install, all appears ok here.

TL_CLD · 05-24-2012, 06:29 AM

When I start google-chrome with strace, it dies with this:

Code:

write(43, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(43, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(33, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(43, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(43, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(43, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(33, "\0", 1)                      = 1
write(43, "\0", 1)                      = 1
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
Segmentation fault

Without strace I simply get:

Code:

[2:2:952748919:ERROR:nacl_fork_delegate_linux.cc(106)] Bad NaCl helper startup ack (0 bytes)
Segmentation fault

The WM used does not appear to matter. I've tried KDE, XFCE and xmonad.

This happens consistently on two different systems: A Lenovo T420 laptop and a Sun Ultra27 workstation.

It is driving me nuts.

I've tried deleting .config/google-chrome, to no avail. I'm currently running the latest google-chrome 19.something.
