http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list

Look at the top of the issues list dude, TONS of people have this problem, not just me or just do a quick google search. Mostly happens to people with synaptics touchpads regardless of driver version. I tried getting the latest generic one from synaptics but that didn't work and I already have the latest gateway one.

Hmm didn't know that, I too have a synaptic touchpad, but I don't have the official synaptic software installed, where you can control additional things.

So, testing build 1754, and it feels about the same as the one I installed on release day. About the same speed.

Whatever's building the mini installer is probably not working at the moment. 1778's mini installer is holding a build somewhere in the 1740-1750 range.

I installed a nightly, but it removed all settings and bookmarks. Why does it do this, and is there any way to stop it from doing that?

The user folder is now Local Settings\Application Data\Chromium\User Data (or AppData\Local\Chromium\User Data). Move over your User Data folder from Google\Chrome\.

Atleast you don't have to install them :p I'm not installing it till they remove that awfull updater.

What's so "awful" about an updater?

But anyways, Chromium builds do not have, and do not use, an updater.

Oh, and Google did mean it when they said the updater would delete itself when all Google software is gone. The updater in Local Settings\Application Data\Google is gone.

edit: in these recent builds, the source code viewer is broken.

Somehow Chrome's result URL is broken, so results are here:

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of the updater process running all the time. And when I uninstalled chrome on my laptop the updater was NOT removed and was still starting at boot even though it was unchecked in msconfig, I had to remove it and it's registry entries manually.

Yeah, on my Vista desktop it wouldn't remove properly. The updater also pegged itself to 75% doing... something. (This is on a quad core system BTW.) On my XP laptop, it removed itself. :huh:

    • laughing is tedious. Elephants really are laughing lazy, y'all..
    • Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.
