I haven't seen that, Archanfel80HUN. That does sound frustrating.

Please report that to Brave directly - this is simply a repackaged version of what they produce.

In the latest 2-3 updates i noticed a nasty bug. Its have a memory leak which is consumed all the available Xsocket connection. Once the maximum connection of Xorg sockets depleted nothing starts anymore and the whole system become unresponsive. The log files full of this: cannot open display: :0.0 Maximum number of clients reached

According to xrestop brave eats 190+ connection and eventually the default 256 limit reached. Revert back to the non nightly version the problem is gone.

Not seeing any glitches here, but am seeing the (annoying) warning. It appears that brave is setting that itself, when it starts the renderer processes.

I'll keep poking around.

What is going on with the latest version (1.33.25-2) since I get a warning when opening the browser:

You are using an unsupported command-line flag: --translate-security-origin=https://translate.brave.com. Stability and security will suffer."

Stability definitely suffered since the browser has weird glitches now.

Thanks gregbunk!

Thanks, wknapik. Added the chmod. It should be all set.

Doesn't work with linux-hardened, presumably because of CONFIG_USER_NS_UNPRIVILEGED!=y.

% zgrep CONFIG_USER_NS_UNPRIVILEGED /proc/config.gz
# CONFIG_USER_NS_UNPRIVILEGED is not set

@gregbunk Awesome! Thanks

gregbunk commented on 2021-09-09 16:01 (UTC)

Sure. Added. Thanks!

Hi. Can you add custom flags support? Maybe like in brave-bin package (https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/brave-bin.sh?h=brave-bin)

#!/usr/bin/env bash
XDG_CONFIG_HOME="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"

# Allow users to override command-line options
USER_FLAGS_FILE="$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/brave-nightly-flags.conf"
if [[ -f $USER_FLAGS_FILE ]]; then
   USER_FLAGS="$(cat $USER_FLAGS_FILE | sed 's/#.*//')"
fi

exec /opt/brave.com/brave-nightly/brave-browser "$USER_FLAGS" "$BRAVE_FLAGS" "$FLAG" "$@"
