The all new Google Chrome Web browser has now became the most popular app in both the Apple IOS and MAC OS app stores but many users of the new MacBook Air are complaining of freezing and crashing of their computers which according to them is because of the newly launched Chrome browser.
It is now confirmed from Google side that Chrome browser is responsible for this unstable behaviour of new MacBook Air. Not only this, Google also confirms that it is limited to new MacBook Air only and other MacBooks are not effected by this bug. This effects only those MacBooks which are running on latest Intel Ivy bridge CPU with Intel HD 4000 graphic chips. It is mainly due to graphic leak problem as explained by Google which effects only Intel HD 4000 based CPU’s only.
In an interview to Gizmodo, Google employee said that they have already filed for the bug “Kernel Panic Trigger” with the Apple because according to them it is not possible for an application to cause this type of problem. Bug number assigned to this problem is 11762608.
To solve this problem on temporary basis, Google disables the GPU Acceleration feature on new MacBook Air via an automatic update.
