Sorry folks, I am new to this and will do my best. I first reported this bug to Google. They got all the data here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=467821 and told me that this is a bug in the r600 driver. Back in December I updated from 32 bit Ubuntu 12.04 to 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04 and have had major stability issues with Chrome ever since, particularly while using Google Maps. This URL https://www.google.com/maps/place/Los+Gatos,+CA+95033/@37.1893925,-121.9894751,11z/data=""> was the first time I've managed to capture something that crashes chrome reliably, however. At their suggestion I tried running chrome with --disable-gpu and at least with a simple test the problem went away. I think these drivers are the default in Ubuntu now, but they seem to be causing me a lot of grief. You can pickup what Google got from the crash report Chrome sent to them from the bug listed above. And for the time being I will figure out how to run with --disable-gpu on all the time to see if that avoids my issue. Failing that I guess it's time to figure out how to go back to ATI's drivers. If there is additional data I can provide somehow, I am happy to try. I'm no wizard, but I will follow instructions and get whatever you need if possible. Thanks.
