Chrome settings that's with default Debian install - FeMike - 01-21-2020
I just received my pb64 and liking it so far. When signing into chrome to sync my accounts I noticed that after I sign into my first about then go into settings to add another the aw snap page pops up. I checked that my internet was connected and confirmed it while a previous page was loading without issue but the settings page keeps going to the error screen. Not sure what's happening, does anyone running the default Debian that has signed into their Gmail can you go to settings and see if it happens to you and report back? At least I'll know if it's a bug or just me.

I fixed this problem by removing the flags from the Chromium properties icon located in the tray at the bottom of the screen. You can test this by launching Chromium from the command line in a terminal as follows:
rock@Debian-Desktop:~$ chromium-browser %U
However, when you launch Chromium this way you can't login to Gmail or other Google apps. To do this you launch Chromium as follows:
rock@Debian-Desktop:~$ chromium-browser --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS armv7l 6946.63.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/79.0.3945.130 Safari/537.36" . Unfortunately, Settings won't work when launched this way.
Hope this helps.

I'll try this out when I get home to the pb64 and report back. When I open up the launcher properties window am I changing the line in the command section?Thank you.

Yes. Change the command line section. You can also test the command in at a terminal prompt.
