[Fixed] Chrome "Go to page ..." not working?

Unread post by machinebacon » Sun Nov 23, 2014 4:18 pm

It must have happened with the latest Chrome update that I can't click on the "Go to page Previous 1 ... 11, 12, 13, 14, 15" in threads that are more than 1 page long.
This is only when I'm inside of the thread, not in the overview of a thread on the forums page. On the forums page, for example in /dev/null (which has several pages) it doesn't work either. Effectively it means I can't read anything except the first and the last page of a thread when inside of the thread. Yup, strange.

Code: Select all

user@grill:~$ policy google-chrome-unstable
google-chrome-unstable:
  Installed: 41.0.2224.3-1
  Candidate: 41.0.2224.3-1
  Version table:
 *** 41.0.2224.3-1 0
        500 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Is there anybody else with a fairly recent Chrome/Chromium who can verify this? Works normally with Iceweasel, just want to check if it's a bug.

Both Chromium and Chrome at v 39 are working which really isn't much help, but:

Code: Select all

google-chrome-unstable:
  Installed: 41.0.2224.3-1
  Candidate: 41.0.2224.3-1
  Version table:
 *** 41.0.2224.3-1 0
        500 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
...does exactly what you're seeing. It is browser-related bug, confirmed.

That being said, Roaster still works awesome. ;)

I moved it to the warnings, why not even though it is an unstable build.

Got worse:

1) Open a tab, visit some website
2) Open another tab, visit some other website
3) Surf for a while there, open another new tab
4) Switch back to the open tab in 1)
5) Outcome: visually, no webpage rendered. View Source shows source of website.

This is google-chrome-unstable from their repos.

Got it finally fixed:

chrome://flags

Enable the entry:
"Override software rendering list Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android
Overrides the built-in software rendering list and enables GPU-acceleration on unsupported system configurations. #ignore-gpu-blacklist"

Links work again, and the blank page problem is gone.
