Vivaldi 6.1 RC 1 – Vivaldi Desktop Browser snapshot 3035.43/44

@mib2berlin yes keep window is open
and maybe to clarify i also have another window open maybe that's something to do with it.

@TrueFerret i also can't seem to recreate it anymore... i don't know anymore how it happened and what tabs i had open

Funny, this snapshot crashes for me after laptop is woken up from sleep. I'm on Linux.

I had some random crash too, but it's finally more stable than few recent snapshots. But well, it feels too unstable for a stable release

@jacekn: Can you submit a crashlog in a bug report? We'll need that to fix it.

Ruarí

@thot: To work around in the mean time, press tab once after the window opens.

Updating from 6.1.3035.3 resulted in even worse white flashes when opening new private windows for a short time, but since seemingly resolved itself. I appreciate the fix, but it was a nasty accessibility bug that had been a problem since version 5.5.2805.32, and I hope the Vivaldi team is faster to address it in the future.

Has the Vivaldi team concluded VB-92622 because it constituted more than launching the browser and opening new windows though that was the worst? If you are using an adblocker and cannot view the videos, you might need to allow plyr.io.

Thank you for the release. Is it available somewhere the changelog of the frozen features for the 6.1?

@ruarí: Uhhh, great. Thank you for the hint.

VB-95776? Hm. VB-97629, crash on waking from sleep mode, persists... Since I've never had this problem with any 6.0, I'm leery of the upgrade to 6.1s. Before this is solved, that is.
So: Sorta thanks!

This is the first time I've heard, of this on other than Mac OSs... (I don't see it as good news.)

Re: VB-97912, happens on opening additional profile, too... But see @Ruarí's work-around.

@Ruarí submitted as VB-97977

@OakdaleFTL I was wrong. It's crashing at the moment of putting to sleep, not on waking up

OakdaleFTL

@jacekn I've been going by the time-stamp of the file created in the Crashpad/Pending folder... (For obvious reasons, I can't watch the crash if it occurs upon "putting to sleep"! What is your evidence? ) Also, I've often watched the crash...

DoctorG

@jacekn Could be a upstream issue on Linux Mint. The dev tries to investigate.

jacekn

@OakdaleFTL it's the same for me, I checked the timestamps for memory dump files. From my experience software tends to crash more often on waking up so I wrongly assumed that's the case here too.

Thank you all for testing. We have now released another Snapshot with a few improvements. The next Stable is coming soon.
