Description Michal Hlavac 2023-08-14 19:35:31 UTC

Created attachment 868797 [details]
error log

After upgrade to snapshots 20230812, 20230813 Google Chrome and Chromium stops render properly web pages. Started to blink and console log shows errors. Attachned error.txt

It looks similar to: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1442633

Can confirm that workaround is: google-chrome --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds

Comment 1 Andreas Schneider 2023-08-16 10:35:22 UTC

This is caused by a Mesa update. It fails to compile some GLSL stuff. Can be fixed with:

rm -rf ~/.config/chromium/Default/GPUCache/

Comment 2 Andreas Schneider 2023-08-16 10:35:45 UTC

Oh, this seems to happen with AMD GPUs ...

Comment 3 Anton Smorodskyi 2023-10-04 06:50:27 UTC

this issue happens to me on regular basis . Unfortunately suggested workaround not easily achievable when we speaking not about chromium itself but about all Zoo of apps which using Electron . For example together with chromium rendering is broken for me in Slack . 
I found this upstream bug https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1442633

I am keep facing this problems in latest TW , just got it again with latest snapshot . To workaround the problem I wrote small bash script maybe it will help someone 
Note: script was written for single computer in the world my laptop :) but I think it is easy to tweak it to cover other setups https://github.com/asmorodskyi/scripts/blob/master/clean_GPUCache.sh

Comment 9 Callum Farmer 2024-03-08 13:28:47 UTC

It's a Mesa issue, there's nothing to change
