Why does Chromium keep crashing in Ubuntu 12.10?

Asked by C.Samaroo

I have a Toshiba Netbook NB250 Win7 Starter and I run Ubuntu 12.10 alongside it using Wubi.

Chromium keeps on crashing to the point I am unable to even move my pointer with either touch pad or mouse and must turn off my net book by its off button (which I have no other option that I know of and I know is not good for the computer).

Relying on Chrome/Chromium is much needed and preferred.

I do have a lot of bookmarks and bkmk folders but as few apps and extensions running as possible. It seems to crash the most when I open my Yahoo mail - but not exclusively - it crashes all the time.

Please someone help.

Thank You.

Have you tried renaming the config folder for the browser then rerunning it. Maybe there is an addon you added causing the issue

Can you help with this problem?
