Windows 7 64 bit
Radeon 5770 with Catalyst 10.9

WebGL and Accelerated Compositing are not on by default and the switch to turn them on does not work. Is this a bug? I was able to get acceleration in the canary build, firefox 4 beta, and ie 9 however Chrome dev will not work regardless of what I try.

I was wrong, they are both on but I am not seeing any FPS increase on IE 9 fish tank demo and I get the Ah Snap crash page a ton. Had to turn off both switches to get a crash free browsing experience. Any idea why I would still be getting 1-5fps in fishtank when I get full acceleration in Firefox and IE9 Beta?

Also, font rendering looks horrible on certain pages such as Facebook when acceleration and webgl are on :(

Hope this gets sorted out before the stable release.

I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.4 and I can't seem to update automatically. When there's an update it will say "Update Now" then it will load for a while and then say "Error 12" After that I have to go through the Library and delete everything related to Google so that I can manually install the new version. The only thing I can think of that could be causing this problem is my use of CleanMyMac. It deletes all language files, Universal Binaries and things like that. I don't know if that could affect me though.

Ooh, suddenly the Mac version scrolls much smoother than before! Nice update indeed. :) (or maybe it's placebo, but I thought of this as a change immediately)

This entry:
"More keyboard shortcuts for Tab Overview.(Issue 52834)"

Should be:
"More keyboard shortcuts for Tab Overview.(Issue 55530 and 50307)"

For the actual shortcuts, see this:

> * Add a lab for the Page Info Bubble for Windows and Linux;

This seems to be a typo, actually "Page Info Bubble" about:labs toggle is not available in Windows/Linux 7.0.536.2 Dev build. Instead it was added to the previous Canary build.

The lab options that were enabled in this dev build are actually "Tabbed Settings", "Remoting" and "Instant" (this one only on Windows).

"Add sqlite and javascript memory columns to task manager"

I am not seeing this on Mac. It is just on the Task Manager correct?

Where the hell is my smooth scrolling and nice IE9 like text display(When hardware acceleration is enabled), I'm Disappointed D:

Settle down, Emiya. You're using a development build, there is no need to start demanding things.

After updating to this dev release, I keep getting display errors and tab crashes (on Mac) when using twitter.com (#newtwitter), especially when displaying the details pane with geolocation-info.

I'm using this release on Windows Vista. Chrome now crashes every hour or so. I have two pinned tabs (reader and gmail) and a few other tabs that change every now and then.

"Enable Remoting Host support." in chrome:labs.
what means?
thanks :-)

Discovered a really random bug. If you have tabbed settings on and the tab open, then disable it and restart (tabbed settings still open) it stays turned on even though it lists as disabled in about:labs and your settings still open in a tab.

2:40 PM, October 01, 2010
Keith said...

Ooh. Actually, doing that makes tabbed settings stuck on permanently.

Win7-64bits really slow version, it only improves by enabling this flags: --enable-gpu-plugin --enable-gpu-rendering --enable-accelerated-2d-canvas --enable-fastback --enable-video-layering

-webkit-transform: rotate [...] usage hangs my chrome extension, and other pages that uses this too.

Yeah, I second the comment on Facebook chat. CPU usage has climbed too.

Did anyone else lose access to their extensions ? Normally where there would be icons corresponding with extensions in the toolbar, I have grey boxes that highlight when I hover over them.

I'm on mac os 10.6 with chrome 7.0.536.2 dev.
