Please provide instructions on how to reproduce, starting from the latest raspbian desktop image (updated and rebooted).
Hi @XECDesign. It's a Chromium digital signage app running in docker containers.
It's a tv app. The app has two containers;
BACKEND - which is a node/react app communicating via websockets.
FRONTEND - chromium browser connects to the exposed port.
We are running on the Raspberry Pi 3+. OS images are;
BACKEND: - FROM resin/raspberrypi3-node:8
FRONTEND - FROM balenalib/raspberrypi3-debian:stretch
As it stands. I have;
entrpoint.sh
#!/bin/bash
umount /dev/shm && mount -t tmpfs shm /dev/shm
env > cron_env_file
# start cron
cron
sleep 25
xinit /home/viewer/launchBrowser.sh -- -nocursor
launchBrowser.sh
#!/bin/bash
#Disable DPMS / Screen blanking
xset -dpms
xset s off
xset s noblank
URL=$URL
default='http://localhost:8888/'
while : # run forever
do
echo "Launching Browser"
echo "Browser is ${URL}"

done

To reproduce for reference though it seems any youtube page will crash with the "aw snap" if it's run with "--disable-gpu" flag
If I run our app without that flag it won't crash but stalls and has other performance issues. This all worked flawlessly in 65 so I'm wondering what changed and how I can configure this. I'd really rather not rebuild an older version of Chromium

Thanks, I'll pass it on to the dev.
Do you still have performance issues if you run without --disable-gpu
, but with --disable-gpu-compositing
?
Hi @XECDesign hmm --disable-gpu-compositing doesn't have "aw snap" errors but the videos don't play.
Strange. We ship with --disable-gpu-compositing
and it has been fine so far. Sounds like a bad interaction with something else in your setup.
Anyway, sounds like --disable-gpu
should be a good hint for where to look.
Hi @XECDesign I actually got it working by removing --disable-gpu
and increasing video memory to 128MB. Thanks for the help
Hi @kevin-bache we have the same issue. Could you please post your full Chromium settings? Thanks a lot.
Chrome kiosk crashes after the update. Was working perfectly before version 65 running on raspi 3+
I get this error
WARNING:software_output_device_x11.cc(105)] Display attributes incompatible with SHM
