Browser consistently crashes MATE desktop session

Hi, @ubuntu_101422

I've searched the web for the specifications ("specs") for Lenovo x201 ("Lenovo ThinkPad x201") and I see that it has an "Intel HD Graphics" as its "Graphics card" (specifications available, for instance, at "https://specspro.net/laptops/6113-lenovo-thinkpad-x201-3680/").

Well, here in the Ubuntu MATE Community, in another similar discussion - Ubuntu Mate 22.04 auto ending Sessions when I do something specific - the user @esan_br (Elias Andrade), that has a "Dell Latitude E6410" which also has an "Intel HD Graphics" as its Graphics card, solved the issue that was happening to him, in "Ubuntu MATE 22.04 LTS" ("Jammy Jellyfish") by:

1 - Creating a file "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf"

2 - Putting the following content in that file:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection

3 - And then rebooting the computer.

Link to that post from @esan_br that he wrote on 1st October 2022:

In that same discussion, the user @Ygor6889 (Ygor Oliveira Silva), that also has a computer with an "Intel HD Graphics" video card, says that @esanbr's solution worked for him as well:

So, @ubuntu_101422, I suggest that you try @esan_br's solution, see if it works for you and then reply again in this same topic where we are now, to tell if that solution also worked for you (or not).

Good luck! :slight_smile:
