[Bug 1419420] [NEW] Starting Chromium-Browser stops before main window is displayed

 

Public bug reported:

I installed Xubuntu 14.04.1
I installed chromium from Software Center. 
I installed nvidea-304 graphic driver

If I start chromium-browser then I see the icon in the panel, but the main window never apears. 
If I start sudo chromium-browser then I messagebox says: Do not run as root...

If I start from command line then the output is:
:~$chromium-browser
