[Bug 1448913] [NEW] (Chrome-based?) applications having display problems

 

Public bug reported:

Please see the attached screenshot.

Recently Chrome and the desktop Spotify client (which I believe is
Chromium-based) are having trouble displaying their contents, especially
in low-memory situations. When I restart Chrome and open only a few tabs
it behaves ok, but when I get into a 2 profiles, 10+ tabs situation it
starts behaving badly. On very low memory situations it keeps trying to
refresh the display and is not usable at all.

All other apps are fine. I'm using 2 DVI + 1 HDMI displays.

** Affects: fglrx-installer-updates (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
