[Bug 1384459] [NEW] google maps window is all black

 

Public bug reported:

Navigate to maps.google.com on chromium-browser.  All is fine.  Type in
an address.  The map of the address is displayed for just a moment,
maybe a half second, then the entire window goes black, except for the
inset windows.  If you click on "street view", the same thing happens:
for just a moment, you see the street view, then blackness.  Embedded
maps in web sites seem to work.  This was all working fine before the
last update to chromium.  Back in August and September I was using
google maps almost every day.
