        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3.) Expect to see video play and no crashing.

4.) When using Google Chrome (current version 40.0.2214.111 (64-bit))
and attempting to watch any Youtube video, the Unity Desktop experiences
a crash and the Unity Desktop (unity start/search and task bar)
disappear. I am unable to launch a terminal window. All Window menus
disappear (i.e. Minimize, Maximize, Close) including those that are
related to the top right shutdown/restart/logoff menu. Desktop

Keyboard input starts to malfunction in window sections.
