2012-06-23 08:06:59 - Crash of Flash related tabs in Chrome
Howdy SOLers.
Using Chrome while SOLing, at last once a day my open SOL tabs are freezing and no further Client-Tab is updated anymore.
The only thing that helps is to close Chrome and restart it. As you can imagine this is more or less critical during a race.

Does anybody of you have similiar problems using Chrome? Any suggestions ?

To show some details of this Chrome-behavior, i attached some Screenshots

Shot 1: Msgbox in chrome http://up.picr.de/10929128ln.jpg
'Seiten beenden' means 'close tabs'
'warten' means 'wait'

Shot 2: Client is no more updated http://up.picr.de/10928991cm.jpg

Shot 3: These are the tabs i had currently open, just SOL-related ones. http://up.picr.de/10928993cj.jpg

Have a nice weekend
Regards Poco (Achim)

I get continually the message "ShockWave flash is inoperative and needs to close"
I use Chrome for all my 'sailing'---and I do not understand......
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

I use Chrome on Win 7 Pro 64bit. Haven't had the problem while SOLing but have in the past. I now run a freeware named Secunia PSI (secunia.com/products/consumer/psi) to make sure all versions of apps are up to date. Making sure you have the latest version of Chrome and Flash seems to help and after each race I run CCleaner to clear the crap out of temp files. I did run SOL contiuously in the Lindisfarne Raid without any probs. I run SOL in a seperate window with maybe only 2 or 3 tabs for Brainaid other SOL stuff like Google Earth. I then use Firefox for any other browsing I may do while SOLing. Hope that helps. Oh, I also have 2 x 24" Samsung 1920x1200 monitors driven by an nVidia Quadro FX 1800 graphics card :-)

Similar freezing behaviour of Chrome here (and Safari and Firefox are even worse…)

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.
