chrome not working

[BishwasKoirala]

hello there . I was trying out linux mint 22 on linve mode . I installed chrome deb package and installed it with gdebi. I tried to open chrome but it didnot. the mouse cursor spins as smth is loading for a while but nothing happens. when I run chrome with terminal => google-chrome-stable --no-sandbox
then only chrome runs. it maybe the issue with ubuntu 24.04 as I ran in the same issue when I tried it and it also happened here.

I hope this get fixed within the linux mint 22 stable release if possible.

Also I want to know if I am able to upgrade to linux mint 22 from linux mint edge-iso

Hey :cat:

I tried directly on LM22 already installed on Virtualbox and Chrome works well (by installing the deb from the Google website), see below:

Maybe you got the issue on liveISO because you didn't do an apt update in the terminal before the installation? Because it seems that the deb file install the package libu2f-udev from repository in addition of Chrome browser.

that may be the case . I will try to launch it after installation .

thank you very much for responding.

If you continue to have problems, you can you try:

apt install apparmor-utils
sudo aa-enforce /etc/apparmor.d/chrome

I installed linux mint 22 in an older hardware and tested it out. I have that chrome not working problem in live mode , and just after installation. after I did system update and reboot, chrome worked fine! but the loading mouse icon apears as it it loading smth for a long , which firefox doesnt.

but looks like it is fine after system upgrade and reboot.

thank you very much for your help
