[Bug 1406612] Re: Black screen while playing youtube video in chrome.
Purece Bálint, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:
apport-collect -p xorg 1406612
Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information.
As well, given the information from the prior release is already
available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be
helpful.
Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
Black screen while playing youtube video in chrome.
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have an Acer Extensa 5620, with GMA x3100 video chipset. When using
Chrome or Chromium to play videos on Youtube the screen goes
completely black and I could not revive it. The audio is played during
this. I have been using Xubuntu and Chrome for about a year, and have
only been experiencing this for a few months. As I recall this came in
around the upgrade that brought in the little icon in the status bar,
that shows Chrome running in the background even when the windows are
closed. I tried reinstalling the newest LTS Xubuntu (14.04), still no
good. With Firefox it works just fine. I guess it could be something
about hardware acceleration, but it is a shot in the dark.
So summarized: I tried to play Youtube videos on Chrome and Chromium.
I was expecting it to playback as it had for years before.
It did not, the screen went all black, audio started playing, and I
could not bring the screen back to showing anything. This has happened
a dozen times, and always happens when trying again.
Thanks!
