Hi, I'm just wondering if WebGL is still disabled in 14.04, even though we are on chromium 44 now? I wanted to enable WebGL just to see if I could watch 360° Youtube vids then, and now noticed that it no longer works at all, apparently due to this Ubuntu change.
I realize that lots of crashes are GPU-related, but IMHO ripping that feature out of chromium completely is bad, as most chromium GPU features are blacklisted (by Google) on my AMD system anyway because they tend to cause problems. If it's too much of an issue, maybe GPU stuff could be blacklisted for all drivers, and those who would like to use WebGL etc. could manually override the blacklist in about:flags? That's what I have done repeatedly in the past, although I'm well aware that any strange behaviour could be related to disabling the blacklist. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1463598 Title: Chromium 43 fails to use hardware acceleration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1463598/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
