When I try to run Chromium(chromium-browser), it displays only the title bar and a border. Here's the error log:

How can I get this to work?

NOTE: I've had a similar problem with Xubuntu as well, but it works fine on Raspbian.

From looking here, I think that it might be problem from a new update, becuase updating chromium caused it to happen in the first place.

If this is true, Could you please tell me how to downgrade (Opposite of upgrade) to a version below 59?

After thinking about it being a version problem, I decided to look around and found this website: http://ports.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/c/chromium-browser/, the official website for the chromium found in APT repositories.

So I looked around, tried out a few versions, and finally, managed to get chromium working by installing 

chromium-codecs-ffmpeg_57.0.2987.98-0ubuntu1.1348_armhf.deb
chromium-browser_57.0.2987.98-0ubuntu1.1348_all.deb
chromium-browser-l10n_57.0.2987.98-0ubuntu1.1348_all.deb

In that order. See How do I install a .deb file via the command line? if unsure; you can, for example, cd to the download directory and run 

sudo apt-get install ./<name of package>.deb

I had the same problem trying to get Chromium to work on Ubuntu Mate. It wouldn't start. I took my time reading through forums trying to find out what's wrong. 15 minutes into it, it suddenly opened up on my raspberry pi's screen by itself (I guess the process was still running). After that it worked normally. I'm still not sure what it was doing there for 15 minutes
