Chrome 16.0.912.0 Dev Channel Update

Dev Channel Update:

The Dev channel has been updated to 16.0.912.0 for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chrome Frame.

All

• Updated V8 - 3.6.6.3


• Native Client and Pepper plug-ins will be able to go use First Person controls for games and other applications after they go full screen and lock the mouse cursor. See PPB_MouseLock::LockMouse.

Mac

• Chrome now offers improved battery life on Mac laptops with dual (integrated and discrete) GPUs. Currently the improvement is present on 2011 MacBook Pros running OS X 10.7.1, but will take effect on more machines as OS software updates are released.

Known Issues

• Printing does not work - crashes the tab.


• Crash in Instant (Issue 100521). Fixed on trunk; workaround is to disable Instant (if it's already disabled and still crashes, please re-enable and disable, using the checkbox in Preferences -> Basics).

Full details about what changes are in this build are available in the SVN revision log. Interested in switching to the Beta or Stable channels? Find out how. If you find a new issue, please let us know by filing a bug.
