What version of Chrome are you using?

Is it a Beta or is it the Stable release?

dont you get more usefull warnings/errors logged to help you ? maybe some conflicts with ppa's installed packages

[sdowney717]

I was using it fine this am, then it just closed all the windows as I was using it.
I did not install anything. I will reboot later.
I am using firefox at the moment.

Is there a chrome log to view what happened?

Did you try Re-installing Chrome?

I found out what happened. I had replaced memory a few days prior.
And the memory timing was not set to auto in the bios. When I reset to auto, then chrome started. However, dont know why it worked at all with it not on auto. What keyed me into bios setting was everything started to act weird and crash. Synapic apt-gtk firefox and others started to spontaneously error.

Glad to hear that you got it straitened out.

i have the same problem, google chrome today refuses to start. It was okay a couple of days ago and it never crashed. I get the same segmentation error, when starting from terminal.

Purging and reinstalling does not help. I did

sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-stable
sudo apt-get autoremove

I reinstalled the stable from software centre, but the same problem remains. I rebooted in between, it makes no diff.
I did nothing to the hardware, so that can not be the problem. Not did I install anything lately, except for updates. It simply refuses to run.

I hope someone has a clue
