Bug Description
Since I upgraded my Ubuntu 19.04 laptop to Ubuntu 19.10 I've been unable to run Robot Framework tests using SeleniumLibrary with Chrome. I keep getting errors from chromedriver:
Parent suite setup failed:
WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally.
(unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist)
(The process started from chrome location /snap/chromium/
Things work somewhat better when I ask chromium to run in headless mode, although I still get weird failures partway through the test suite (I think on the first test that uses Select Window): TimeoutException: Message: timeout: Timed out receiving message from renderer: 300.000.
It would be easier to debug this if I could _see_ what the browser is doing, which brings us back to the original problem: non-headless chromium doesn't work in 19.10.
