Hi, since I disabled hardware acceleration it don´t freeze anymore on my Linux install but at the same time the GPU driver was updated, the same procedure as last year.
Nobody can dependable reproduce it, no debugging possible, no fix.Cheers, mib
EDIT: Again a freeze today, still no solution. -
Vivaldi freezes on me pretty frequently. Sometimes, the browser will go black, then reload, and everything's fine. Other times (like now) it just stops. Tab selection still works, and reloading the page works, but page does not respond to mouse clicks or keyboard entry.
Currently, I'm in Gmail, and I have opened a jpeg attached to an email message. And suddenly, nothing.
Any fixes you folks know of? This happens on both computers I use frequently.
Thank you!

This has started to happen today after I updated Vivaldi snapshot later to 5.7.2921.3 and the previous version first. It only happens on pages with active video playback, at random.
-
I have disabled smooth scrolling, this probably do nothing.
It's not a memory leak, because RAM it's not been eaten away.
Any wishes for experiments, maybe disabling cores or something, while the bug is present?

@ZzZombo On what site, Twitch works fine?

I had 3x freezing in two days.
Any news?
What is the bug tracker number?

No process, I still cant reproduce it constantly, it happen on one system on Linux with iGPU from Intel, UHD 620.
Once a day at least.Cheers, mib

Well, i have Win11 and AMD APU, so that's that.

@iPristy
Yes and some have Win 10 and Nvidia, how should you tackle this as a developer.
I never get this freeze on the same hardware on Windows 11, only if I boot to Linux.
If I remember correctly this is an old Chromium bug, years old but I cant find the link anymore and I am to lazy to search for. -
@iPristy For me such freezes appear once a day / NVida GT 710 / Windows 11 22H2.
Three or five times a day on my office's Linux PC with Intel HD graphics.But as users have different hardware, drivers and OS installations and browser extensions, it is very hard to tackle down such issues.

Can someone please provide a link from Chromium database, where this bug actually is, then i will do a blog post about this.
Maybe someone at Google will read it.

I had not found a link to Chromium Bug Tracker in Vivaldi bug tracker.

@iPristy
Hi, I tried to find it in Chromium bug tracker but no success, there are many many reports about Chromium or Chrome freeze.EDIT: That may have been incorrect information, I probably confused it with the blank page bug.

@iPristy Hi!
I am using Edge and Vivaldi in parallel, and have not seen this bug on Edge.
Both share Chromium base, so I think this might be browser-speific. -
@Chetter The core is Chromium 114, but Edge has its own patches and optimisations.
If you want to compare, you need to compare to Chromium browser! -
@Chetter
Hi, saw your post in the status thread, I guess if nobody can reproduce this constantly it will never get a fix.
I use Windows 11 and Linux on the same hardware but only get the freeze on Linux but never on Windows 11.
On my other hardware it never freeze in Windows 11 and Linux, what should a developer do with this information.Cheers, mib
