error 6 in IcedTeaPlugin.so

[egbertsl]

hi,

Yesterday I upgrade my Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10....this upgrade finished on my Toshiba laptop without any problem until I wanted to start Chrome....nothing happened.....My Firefox is still working. I also installed Chromium but that didn't work either.There is no screen opening, only two errors in my messages log:

1: Oct 13 09:51:23 laptop kernel: [ 1259.430944] lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions

2: Oct 13 09:51:24 laptop kernel: [ 1260.600425] chrome[6914]: segfault at 11acbf2 ip 01924cec sp b65add80 error 6 in IcedTeaPlugin.so[191d000+2e000]

Every time I try to start Chrome....this error messages appear in the log. It looks a bit like some Java error....I reinstalled Java and Chrome several times but without any luck....Since my knowledge of these things is limited...I would appreciate some help form you :-)

Thx
greetings

I have the same error on a clean installation of Maverick.

I had the same problem. After upgrade from Ubuntu 10.4 to 10.10 Google Chrome stop starting. I had the same messages in the log about IcedTeaPlugin.so plugin. I try to find the solution and when remove "icedtea-6-plugin" with Synaptic, Chrome start successfully.
