Title:
  Google Chrome crash with mesa 10.3 on Intel GPU

Status in “mesa” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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

  Problems Detected
  GPU process was unable to boot: GPU access is disabled in chrome://settings.

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