[04:37:28] <binMonkey> hi, guys.  i've had a stalling problem with chrome on ubuntu 9.10 and i think it involves flash.  where is the plugins directory and what does chrome need to play flash stuff?
[04:38:12] <rubenbb> usually nothing, putting flash in the normal plugins directories that every browser uses is enough
[04:39:22] <binMonkey> rubenbb: dang.  i was hoping you wouldn't say that.  :(
[04:40:01] <rubenbb> was it working before or are you trying it for the first time?
[04:40:45] <binMonkey> it worked fine until about two weeks ago.  now it stalls SOMETIMES and loads fine other times.  it also doesn't shutdown properly.
[04:41:24] <binMonkey> i also have the same problem with straight chromium and iron browser.
[04:42:56] <rubenbb> well, what changed?  did you upgrade those browsers in the last two weeks or maybe flash was updated?
[04:43:36] <binMonkey> as far as i can tell nothing changed.  i haven't updated anything for a while.
[04:43:59] *** webster42 has joined #chromium-support
[04:44:13] <webster42> how does one change the channel on a mac?
[04:45:41] <rubenbb> binMonkey: well, chrome updates automatically usually - http://www.googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/
[04:45:54] <rubenbb> hmm, not on linux though, nevermind
[04:46:12] <webster42> sure it updates automatically
[04:46:15] <binMonkey> rubenbb: i think it does.
[04:46:23] <webster42> but what if I want to move to the beta or dev channel?
[04:46:34] <binMonkey> i read that it adds a line to sources.lst.
[04:46:47] <rubenbb> I don't think linux chrome has the automatic updater
[04:47:03] <webster42> for windows there's a little program that allows you to change the channel subscription
[04:47:03] <webster42> but I'm on a mac..
[04:47:32] <rubenbb> webster42: http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
[04:48:44] <rubenbb> binMonkey: ok, your distro might have some automatic update mechanism that it invokes, I don't know, but your chrome doesn't use the built-in auto-updater that updates based on binary diffs, that windows chrome has
[04:49:17] <webster42> "Download the desired channel, then drag the app to the usual place"
[04:49:18] <rubenbb> binMonkey: anyway, what chrome version?
[04:49:19] <webster42> that doesn't work
[04:49:31] <webster42> it won't let me overwrite the current chrome app
[04:49:39] <webster42> (permissions)
[04:50:08] <rubenbb> you don't have admin access, webster42?
[04:51:15] <webster42> of course I do
[04:51:15] <webster42> "The operation can?t be completed because you don?t have permission to access some of the items." <- that gives me pause
[04:51:15] <webster42> I can change the permissions of chrome.app, didn't think I should
[04:55:31] <binMonkey> rubenbb: i'm going to log out and try something.  wish me luck.
[04:55:37] *** binMonkey has left #chromium-support
[04:56:48] <webster42> sweet pinned tabs are back
[04:58:58] *** binMonkey has joined #chromium-support
[04:59:57] <binMonkey> rubenbb: ok.  chrome, chromium, and iron browser all work perfectly under gnome.  i've been using xfce all this time.  i'm going to try kde next.
[05:00:23] <rubenbb> didn't they always work fine except for flash, binMonkey?
[05:01:27] <webster42> dammit
[05:01:34] <binMonkey> no.  they all stalled when loading any page.  pages with flash never worked.  pages without flash were hit and miss.
[05:01:35] <webster42> again with the Aw, Snap! errors all over the place
[05:01:44] <webster42> it was fine until the recent updates this week
[05:01:53] <webster42> and I hoped switching to the beta channel would cure it
[05:02:11] <webster42> is it just me or has chrome hit a bad quality release ?
[05:02:38] <binMonkey> webster42: it's hit and miss here with some linux desktops.
[05:03:21] <webster42> I'm on a mac, but I thought they got serious with supporting non-windows seriously
[05:03:23] <webster42> guess not
[05:03:39] <webster42> has there been a recent uptick in complaints tho?
[05:03:44] <binMonkey> webster42: don't get too angry.  it's new and it's free.
[05:03:58] <binMonkey> eventually they'll get everything worked out.
[05:04:21] <webster42> sure, it's just that regressions bug me
[05:04:28] <webster42> it was perfect! super speedy, super stable
[05:04:37] <binMonkey> i know exactly what you mean.
[05:04:43] <webster42> now it feels like phoenix 0.4!
[05:05:24] <binMonkey> i've used chrome exclusively for a long time.
[05:05:40] <binMonkey> then it got goofy.
[05:05:56] <binMonkey> and my stomach got all knotty trying to figure it out.
[05:07:39] <webster42> the insanity is it loads up iGoogle in a blink of an eye
[05:07:48] <webster42> but you open gizmodo or something in another tab and it gets stuck
[05:08:11] <webster42> open another tab with some other website, and that loads fine
[05:08:27] <webster42> and sometimes gizmodo works and the other website doesn't!
[05:08:32] <webster42> no rhyme or rhytem
[05:08:46] <webster42> *rhythm
[05:08:57] <binMonkey> yeah.  but it's free.
[05:08:59] <binMonkey> and new.
[05:09:05] <binMonkey> and when it works it's amazing.
[05:10:14] <webster42> http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=0b988d1a557cff12&hl=en
[05:11:17] <binMonkey> i missed that.  there's a nice thread in the ubuntu forums.
[05:11:47] <binMonkey> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1390244&highlight=chrome+stall
[05:12:15] <binMonkey> i just found it.  i'm on gnome now and all three versions work perfectly.

[05:16:32] <rubenbb> webster42: so your problem is that the recent builds will randomly Aw snap?
[05:16:43] <webster42> yep
[05:17:05] <rubenbb> hmm, have you tried swapping out your user config or cache?
[05:17:44] <webster42> nope
[05:17:46] <webster42> do tell
[05:28:23] <rubenbb> look in library/application support for the chrome config directory

[14:13:48] *** MissAlyx has joined #chromium-support
[14:14:50] <MissAlyx> Not neccersarily Chromium but rather, Chrome related (It's all pretty similar anyway). The command parameter "--proxy-server" refuses to work, anyone know how to make it play nice and work properly?
[14:15:21] <MissAlyx> I've tried (exactly as it is shown): --proxy-server=127.0.0.1:8118, -proxy-server=127.0.0.1:8118, "--proxy-server=127.0.0.1:8118", "-proxy-server=127.0.0.1:8118"
[14:15:25] <MissAlyx> And none of them worked.
[14:17:30] <MissAlyx> hm, one combination i havnt tried
[14:17:54] <MissAlyx> it still didnt work
[14:17:56] <MissAlyx> xD
[14:19:24] <MissAlyx> *facepalm* unless chrome can't have a proxy in one window, and no proxy in another window? (So, proxy in the incognito window i launched, and not in the other window.. but being different processes i wouldnt have thought that would be a problem)
[14:47:35] <pcgod> hmm you tried adding the proxy type? (socks5://<ip>, http://, etc)
[14:48:08] <MissAlyx> i never considered that, because i couldnt find any reference to that online, but ill try that.
[14:48:45] <MissAlyx> still not getting anything
[14:49:06] <MissAlyx> it loads, incognito, but it just isnt using the proxy at all
[14:50:03] *** rrr has joined #chromium-support
[14:51:04] <MissAlyx> tried putting the " in various places, still got nothing
[14:53:10] <pcgod> seems like you can't have multiple windows with different proxy settings using the same profile...
[14:53:30] <pcgod> adding --user-data-dir=/tmp works
[14:54:17] <MissAlyx> And what would that do?
[14:55:29] <MissAlyx> googled it, that still wouldnt store any history/cache (with it been incognito and all), right?
[14:56:04] <pcgod> it will create a new profile but shouldn't store anything in it
[14:56:33] <MissAlyx> you are jesus.
[14:56:34] <MissAlyx> it works :P
[14:56:36] <MissAlyx> thanks a lot
[14:57:27] <MissAlyx> and yeah, it doesnt even make the directory, thats great
