Hi,
It came down to this Google Chrome extension:
Name: Extensions Manager (aka switcher)
Version: 0.1.6.95_0
When this extension is enabled in 64-bit Linux when I launch Google Chrome
on two separate machines (both 64-bit/Debian), it crashes Xvnc, when I
disable/remove this extension, Xvnc no longer crashes (at least it has not
yet :-))
All of this hassle due to 1 bad plug-in; in any event though there is a bug
in X/VNC, an application should not crash VNC.
Just a heads up to anyone else who sees this problem.
Justin.
