Using Firefox 140esr and 146.0.1 Intel CPU, if you load cnn.com Firefox stutters before freezing eventually crashing crostini. I can eventually get Firefox closed, middle clicking and selecting close a few times then forcing it. But no more Linux programs will run until the Chromebook is rebooted.

Has anyone else experienced this and is there a way to "reset" crostini without having to reboot the Chromebook?

Update: the issue resolved itself on its own. I assume cnn.com changed something, like a crashing script. But, reguardless, I don't think a Linux app should be able to crash crostini.

  • No problem for me, the same version is running fine on my duet11 with arm CPU

  • Why are you reluctant to restart your Chromebook? It might solve your problem, so it's worth a try.

    You misunderstand. Visiting the cnn.com site was crashing crostini and making it unusable. every single time. I am fine restarting my chromebook, but NOT every single time after I visit a web page.
