[SOLVED] Google Chrome Update - 20.0.1132.47 x64

[yankee495]

For me the Chrome update messed up my pop ups and mouse over menus.

When I mouse over the "My Ebay" menu and menus on other sites they do not appear correctly.

On Ebay when I click on a tracking number you are supposed to get a popup that displays tracking info. It appears but is incomplete.

On http://www.titantv.com clicking on a show title is supposed to give you a pop up with the show description. It pops up but is torn...like a page torn in half with incomplete info.

I uninstalled Chrome 20.0.1132.47 and re-installed Chrome 19.0.1084.52 and it fixed it. I done this two times for testing purposes.

Also, rebooting, logging out etc...I tried that and Chrome 20 might work ok for one menu or pop up then it goes stupid again. I tried this several times too.

The only thing that fixed it was re-installing Chrome 19.0.1084.52 again. If you have this problem try this.

I don't know where to get it...I already had it. When I goto google to download chrome it wants to give me a .deb package. I can't find links to older versions, just ones named google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm.

Also to use an older version delete the /home/user-name/.config/google-chrome/ folder or you'll get a user profile error. Make sure to back up your book marks.

I reported this here even though it is most likley a Chrome bug so people could fix it if they have these problems.

I'm pretty sure the above post is SPAM...In another thread it is "Speed Up Firefox".

May be just very uninformed assistance.

Sorry yankee495, i moved the your mentioned message ruthlessly.
Placed it on [HOLD], thanks for your alertness.

It is ok, but I went and looked at the Chrome article and then seen the other one was Firefox, same site...

I didn't want to offend anyone that was trying to help and I understand that all of us don't speak English, so I looked.

I never did figure out why this update caused me problems but I'm marking it solved as the Chrome update to Version 20.0.1132.57 fixed the issue and I am now able to run the newest stable release.

I was wrong. Chrome was still rendering pages wrong. I found this information from a Fedora user that did fix it:

Go into chrome://plugins, click Details and disable PepperFlash. It should be the top one listed.

For those that don't know, enter chrome:plugins in the address bar to get there.

Close and re-open Chrome to make sure it works.

So actually this is not about a problem with chrome itself, but a 3rd party plugin, correct?

[yankee495]

I don't know Dok. Chrome is said to have flash built in, or it used to be so pepper flash may be part of Chrome.

I'll see what I can find, but this does fix it for me.

Here is the scoop I guess:

yankee495,
"Go into chrome://plugins, click Details and disable PepperFlash"
The problem is that disabled the one flash 11.3.x on linux and uses the obsolete 11.2.x
