Forgot to mention that I am using XFCE4.

I solved my problem by installing chromium-browser-bin package on my 64bit desktop.
I had no problem with "chromium" package on 32bit desktop.

The same problem but not on start. Chromium crashes in different time, for different reason.
Openbox 3.

Can't reproduce; maybe some faily plugin is causing the segfaults?

Try starting Chromium with a clean profile: chromium --user-data-dir=$(mktemp -d)
Comment by Martin Minka (k2s) - Wednesday, 25 April 2012, 07:20 GMT
the problem was in Chromium and it is fixed already
it was not working in 18.0.1025.142 and now 18.0.1025.162-1 is in extra
