Description of the issue: AFTER install Brave 1.73.89 on a Raspberry Pi5 I get Aw Snap error with error code 5. This happens about 2 to 3 minutes after opening the browser. Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3. Install Brave version 1.73.89 on a Raspberry Pi5. I updated mine f…

I’ll jump in saying I’m having the same issue. I have my Brave package on hold at Version 1.71.123 Chromium: 130.0.6723.116 (Official Build) (64-bit) since that is the last version that works for me. I’ve re-installed Brave, wiped all Brave data, and whatever else I can think of, but anything newe…

@Mattches , This long-running “Aw Snap” issue exists for Raspberry Pi5 BB users.

It appears that there are NO Brave developers for the Raspberry PI OS that are watching this forum or could care less? When on hold at version 1.71.123 Brave now suggests we need to update it. Of course, I will NOT do that UNTIL someone comes up with a fix.

It would be very helpful if we could get crash reports from a version of the browser that exhibits the issue. I’ve reached out to some devs about this as well.

I thought crash reports were already uploaded. I can wipe, update and upload whatever log you need… Just need to know what you are looking for.

@Olympics1639 if you are able to snag the crash report ID(s) for those crashes to me here we can look them up on our end to help root out the cause.

Closed Brave Removed ~/.config/BraveSoftware Updated Brave via apt package manager Googled how to access Brave crashes Opened settings Opened Brave Community and searched for this thread Saw multiple crashes, made sure each was uploaded and copied information from brave://crashes Let me know if th…

@Olympics1639 no that’s perfect, thank you. Will reply back here when I hear back from the team.

Wow … great to know someone from Browser support will look at this. I am a Linux rooky so I do not know how to generate crash reports however it looks like Olympics1639 will do that. I now have hope this will get fixed.

The team has identified this as an upstream issue — unfortunately it looks like we’ll have to wait for the upstream fix as well:
