Hello Keith,

First thing you should do is make sure the OS and firmware is fully patched.? Next, open up a terminal window and start either Firefox or Chromium from the command line.? If the program emits any errors, crash details, etc... it should print all that to the terminal window.? Send us that text and the people on the list might be able to give you some ideas.? Beyond that, all I can say is since you're using a Raspberry Pi 4 with Bookworm, you're using the new Wayland display server by default (this only applies to the new Rpi5 and Rpi4 / Rpi400 / CM4).? If you run out of patience, you can switch back to the legacy Xorg Xwindows display server using the raspi-config utility and a reboot.? Hopefully that will solve your issue and I don't think there will be much of any penalty (if any at all) for the lifetime of Debian Bookworm).

I recently decided to update the OS in a Raspberry Pi 4, and the newer versions of YAAC, Direwolf and others. I used the Raspberry Pi Imager app to load the newest 64bit Debian Bookworm and the Pi Desktop. After loading I did all the usual things changing settings for the U.S. and so on. Then I brought up the Chromium Web Browser, after about a minute it froze and would do nothing more. I rebooted the Pi and tried again and again and again it happened every time, and then I tried using Firefox ... same result.

I never got around to loading anything on the Pi, so nothing could be causing the issue from another application. Has anyone else experienced this and if so what did you do to fix it?
