Thanks, I too saw this solution on brave support forum but it didn't work for me :dft004:
That's what I was going to say because it really didn't fix it earlier, but now it works :dft002:
I won't try to understand this time and just gonna enjoy the result
Magic that's all that comes to my mind right now

Daveyboy:
Having experienced the same issues as yourself, I think I have now found the solution.

After googling the white screen issue I cam across this link and followed it's instructions to turn off Hardware Acceleration within Chrome and having done so this seems to have fixed my problem
https://www.partitionwizard.com/partitionmagic/white-screen.html

However, after hastily marking my issue as solved yesterday, only for it to reappear - I will wait 24 hours before re-marking it as "SOLVED" this time.

I hope this also works for you

FunkAndCode:
Hmmm I didn't make a restore point. :022: I reinstalled ll6.6 from scratch maybe 3-4 days ago because I did deletie files I shouldn't have lol. I guess I'll have to wait the next update it might get fixed later

stevef:
Thank you.

One suggestion would have been to get the system to boot the previous kernel (if available) to see if the older kernel worked with new chrome.
But I can't see 5.15.0.100 listed. Do you routinely remove old kernels ?
Do you have any recent restore points made with System Restore Utility (aka timeshift) for rollback testing ?

FunkAndCode:
Thank you for the answer, this is my config:
