Weird problem with Chrome

[kubobbu]

I'm having a weird problem with Chrome and e-mail links.

If I click a link in an e-mail, Chrome will open for a fraction of a second, and then close. If I open Chrome first, and then click the link in the e-mail, it goes to the proper page in Chrome with no problem.

This has been happening with the last few kernel and chrome updates so I haven't specified my current versions.

Has anyone else seen this, and can anyone offer a suggestion... except for always opening chrome first

Thanks
Bob

I'm running ver. 9.0.597.44 and I have never experienced this problem using Thunderbird for e-mail. What e-mail client are you using?

Re: Weird problem with Chrome

I'm running Thunderbird as well.

I don't believe the problem is with TBird... it's Chrome... it opens, then closes immediately, and I'm back in TBird.

Don't understand it, but until it cures itself with another update, I'll just have to remember to open Chrome first... then there's no problem.

Re: Weird problem with Chrome

It may help to use the terminal to open Thunderbird then open a link with Chrome. The terminal should reflect some sort of problem. Fixing it is another problem, though. That's the risk of running this beta of Chrome. It does some weird stuff to me sometimes as well.
