Have you reported any of these apport bugs to apport maintainers?

For stale running processes, kill them with "killall chromium-browser".

Please start chromium-browser from a terminal for a while. Look for
suspicious messages it emits. Also, use "--verbose" parameter on the
end, which should add many details at next update.

Title:
  chromium-browser doesn't start anymore

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi there

  On 14.10 I noticed sometimes that Chromium Browser just didn't start
  (the gui) anymore. It's still there in the process list.

  Now I'm on 15.04 and just noticed the same thing. It doesn't happen
  often but it happens sometimes.

  Currently grepping for chromium browser returns:

  hyper    26637 99.7  0.5 869796 94208 ?        Rl   08:32   4:47 chromium-browser --disk-cache-dir=/tmp/cache/chromium --disk-cache-size=102400000 --memory-model=low --enable-pinch

  hyper    26649  0.0  0.0 615068 10200 ?        S    08:32   0:00 chromium-browser --type=zygote                          
  hyper    26843  0.0  0.0  11004  2280 pts/7    S+   08:37   0:00 grep --color=auto chromium

  
  I can kill all the processes and try to start chromium again but no luck. The only way I can actually use CB again is by rebooting.

  I have no idea why it doesn't start properly though.
