Title:
Unity crashing while watching youtube videos using chrome
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I recently upgraded to ubuntu 14.10 and started experiencing
repeatable unity crashes while watching youtube videos using current
chrome. It doesn't always crash at the first attempt but most
definitely.
Once unity crashes it is respawn but again crashes immediately, the PC
becomes unusable until I kill X from the console or reboot. From my
.xsession-errors:
upstart: unity7 main process (9627) terminated with status 1
upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
upstart: unity7 main process (9998) terminated with status 1
upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
upstart: unity7 main process (10017) terminated with status 1
upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
upstart: unity7 main process (10041) terminated with status 1
upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
upstart: unity7 main process (10054) terminated with status 1
upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
[you got the point]

I never tried running unity_support_test before upgrading from 14.04
to 14.10, so I'm not sure if it looked better on 14.04 but definitely
it didn't crash in this way. In my view this is a regression.
