Unable to properly run chrome or brave with linux-browser-installer

I am not sure if this is the right category, or the right place so if it is, I apologize.

I can install and get chrome or brave to start with linux-browser-installer. However, once it opens, it is completely unusable. It is extremely laggy and then eventually crashes. I am not sureif I have a setting somewhere missing, or missing a graphics driver.

Here are the relevant logs

Is there any more information that I can give that may be helpful?
Thank you in advance.
 
gotcha. that would make sense. i am curious if I am the only one or if others are using it just fine with 14.
 
Very similar issues, also on 14, have never tried w/ other versions and somewhat new to FreeBSD in general. Have you come by a resolution yet?

I will add that mine seems to operature lag free for a few minutes, till something triggers the lagginess (and I guess the GPU errors? don't remember), eventually something will cause the whole thing to crash. When I relaunch the same process continues again. I tried turning off hardware acceleration in the settings, but then I recall it crashing so quick I couldn't even make to settings to turn it back on!

Haven't tried playing with commandline flags like --disable-gpu yet

EDIT:
After playing around for a bit, I've identified that tooltips on the Chrome interface itself is one of the strongest triggers. If I can avoid those, things seem to run fine.
 
FreeBSD's Linuxulator will never be "perfect" (Linux and its typical userland being quickly moving targets doesn't help either).

Sure, running a Linux browser should be possible, and individual issues will probably get fixed eventually, but still, a native browser is always preferred.

That said, what's your reason for running a Linux browser? If it's about "widevine" (THE #1 reason until recently), we have an alternative meanwhile, see www/linux-widevine-cdm and www/foreign-cdm for a much better solution running only widevine (plus a little communication adapter) with Linuxulator.
 
Thanks, totally understand that, and that's useful for info about widevine. However, I'd like to use a Chromium-based browser to use certain extensions only available for it. I prefer Chrome, despite being proprietary, for sync support. However, I'm looking into Chromium w/ some kind of bookmark sync extension as a compromise, or if I can get some of the hacks to get sync working on it.

NB: the tooltips and popups on the Chrome UI really are the issue. Literally if I can avoid them, Chrome's running fine. Going to see if they can be turned off or I can find out what the underlying issue is. If I do I'll report back here.
