Using search from omnibar causes Xorg to restart or crash

[Radics Ottó]

I just happened, nothing special. Using chrome, typing into the omnibar to search on Google, and Xorg crashes. No crash on normal domain input.

Radics Ottó, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

When the crash happens, do crash files populate in /var/crash ?

[Radics Ottó (saboteur777)]

Well, I have some crash files in /var/crash. After every crash I tried to send a bug report, but the report was damaged.

Here is the output of <code>ls -al</code>:

p.s. I think the crash might be related to enabling 'override software rendering list' option in chrome://flags.

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Radics Ottó, to see if this is already resolved, could you please test http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and advise to the results?

[Radics Ottó (saboteur777)]

I turned off 'Override software rendering list' in Chrome, and the problem disappeared. Should I test it anyway?
