When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop. You can have a look at the "Stable updates" tag in Release blog for this.

You can also run this command to obtain the version string for the latest chrome version:

$ curl -sSf https://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages | \
     grep -A1 "Package: google-chrome-stable" | \
     awk '/Version/{print $2}' | \
     cut -d '-' -f1

Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.

The Chrome version 117 appears to add support for HEVC and AV1 decode through VAAPI.

system-config-printer should at least be listed in optdepends, as outside of KDE it is the default dialog for managing printers, and some DEs such as XFCE have no fallback option. Otherwise, you get this error in the console: [7294:7319:0911/095606.965026:ERROR:printer_manager_dialog_linux.cc(100)] Failed to open printer manager dialog Source: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/chrome/browser/printing/printer_manager_dialog_linux.cc

Chrome looks scary now. Almost like multiple screen tears. Degrading version also not working for me. This occurred after upgrading my arch to latest. Anybody facing the same?

I added -force-device-scale-factor=1.2 to my chrome-flags.conf and it looks good. am i right?

The latest update changed something with the DPI. Everything, including UI elements are massive now, even on my 1080p screen. Many pages I have to zoom out to around 80% to get what they're supposed to look like. I have no idea how to fix this.

Seems like vaapi hw video decode stopped working after updating to 116.0.5845.96-1. I've reverted to the previous version.

Once live captions is enabled, chrome tab CPU usage exceeds 500%, has anyone experienced this issue?

fixed after clear cache data and relaunch the chrome

@minime I think I managed to clear my issue by resetting chrome settings (Settings-Reset Settings) - no idea if this will cure your issue but it might be worth testing. But after the reset Chrome is no longer leaving a process in the background at 100%.

minime commented on 2023-08-12 13:28 (UTC)

@dsyzling Just so you know, I think I have the same issue. Sometimes CPU utilization spikes up until chrome process gets killed. I wasn't able to pinpoint the exact scenario for a repro, it happens during google meet calls, during playing YT vids, sometimes even in idle. I run the latest arch kernels, proprietary nvidia drivers, i3wm. Machine is a PC, intel 6700k, 16gb ram. Hardware acceleration is on.

Has anyone else experienced 100% CPU utilisation with Chrome - even after closing the browser window I'm left with a chrome process at 100%? This started to occur with a new release a few months back. I've tried hardware acceleration flags and as far as I can see I have hardware decoding enabled. Machine is a Carbon X1 (gen 6). I can watch youtube videos without any issues but if I trigger a google search which yields youtube videos the cpu on one process goes to 100% and I have to manually kill the process from the command line.
