got my Librem 13 not log ago, so far giving it a try with PureBrowser but want to check out Chromium as well.
just after a fresh Chromium install, it immediately crashes after launching. Anyone experienced similar issues?
Is everything up to date?
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt dist-upgrade

thanks for the tip beFree, I had to download a ton of updates. Wondering why they didn’t show up in the “Software & Updates” and I had to force them through the terminal?
Unfortunately the Chromium behavior remains the same…
Hi @dakshinachara,
Can you open a terminal (launch the application called tilix on your Librem), and launch Chromium from the terminal? Simply type in chromium from tilix
There should be a lot of text in your terminal before Chromium crashes. Can you paste it here?
:~$ chromium

Calling _exit(1). Core file will not be generated.
Not sure about that error in particular, but have you tried moving or deleting the Chromium config folder?
user@host:~$ mv .config/chromium/ .config/chromium_backup/
That will force creation of a new profile and configs that can resolve some issues, probably worth a try.
