Google Maps hang my ubuntu

Question

System hang after sometimes scrolling the map and zoom in-out. I tried different browser, chrome and firefox and the result was the same. I need to hardly shutdown my system and restart ubuntu to fix it.

Answer 1

I confirm that:

1) swapoff -a

2) removing /swap.img from /etc/fstab

3) adding a swap partition to /etf/fstab: partitionid none swap sw 0 0

4) swapon -a

solve the problem!

This is a nasty bug! (IMO)

Answer 2

I had this exact issue and fixed it by creating a swap partition, a small detail that I completely forgot when doing my manual installation.
