Public bug reported:

When I start google-chrome on my Ubuntu 14.10 system the process it uses
to test for a working GPU crashes and then Chrome falls back to software
rendering.

In chrome://gpu/ I get:

Graphics Feature Status
Canvas: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable
Flash: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable
Flash Stage3D: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable
Flash Stage3D Baseline profile: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable
Compositing: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable

Driver Bug Workarounds
clear_uniforms_before_first_program_use
count_all_in_varyings_packing

Problems Detected
GPU process was unable to boot: GPU access is disabled in chrome://settings.
Disabled Features: all
[...]

In Ubuntu 14.04 (and also previous versions), one the same laptop, the
exact same Google Chrome used to work perfectly with GPU acceleration.
