Do you mean that all X apps freeze up, or only some? e.g. - can you move the mouse? - can you use your window manager with the keyboard (e.g., switching between windows/workspaces)? - can you switch to VT1 with ctrl-alt-f1? - if no, can you with alt-f1 after alt-printscreen + r? In any event, it would be nice to get a backtrace to see where chromium is hanging. If you can reproduce this, could you install chromium-browser-dbg and try attaching to the various running chromium processes and getting backtraces from them? i.e., for each process listed by ps ax | grep chromium use gdb -p <process_id> bt [...] > I saw no bugs that looked like this in the Google bug trackers. Could you submit this and any further follow-ups to http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/entry?template=Defect%20on%20Linux and send a link to this bug log so we can work on it upstream?
