Chrome crashes new MacBooks
Posted: 30 Jun 2012, 11:33
New MacBooks have been crashing with kernel panics quite a lot. And now the sinner is identified - it is Googles Chrome. The boxes freeze up so you have to hold the Swedish button for 3 seconds to restart.
The resource leak is causing a kernel panic on Mac hardware containing the Intel HD 4000 graphics chip (e.g. the new Macbook Airs). Radar bug number 11762608 has been filed with Apple regarding the kernel panics, since it should not be possible for an application to trigger such behavior.
Maybe this comment is accurate.
Google Chrome causes an Apple product to Panic. 'nuff said.
