Many users of the newly-launched Macbook Air have been experiencing issues like system crashes and freezing. Many felt that the issue was related to Chrome. Now Google has reportedly acknowledged the problem.
Google reportedly told Gizmodo in a statement that it has found a "leak of graphics resources in the Chrome browser" that is causing kernel panic on the new Macbook Airs. However, the company said that the problem is restricted to new notebooks which have Intel HD 4000 graphics chip.
Though the search giant stated that a kernel panic triggered this problem, it emphasised that such an action from an application was not feasible. Therefore, Google has filed a bug report with Apple to identify the actual issue behind the problem. Google spokesperson told Gizmodo, "Radar bug number 11762608 has been filed with Apple regarding the kernel panics, since it should not be possible for an application to trigger such behavior."
