    URGENT ASSISTANCE NEEDED!!!

    I installed Deepin on a Macbook and is almost working without problem. The only change that I urgently need to make is change the Chrome launcher in the dock bar and in the apps menus adding  to the launch command the following:"--disable-gpu".
    Without the change requested in place the screen blackout randomly (the computer doesn't crash) making the computer unaccesible even with a external monitor connected!!!

    The question is clear: he needs to create a custom launcher with a command like "chrome --disable-gpu" and put it in the dock as replacement to the standard chrome launcher (which I assume has got a simple "chrome" command)

    Question is: where can he find the *.desktop file (or similar) that it is used in the launcher/dock and modify it?

    Very useful question

    Hi, I may have the answer to your problem !
    Rather than change your launcher, this could be a simple matter of changing your google chrome settings.

    Go to settings in chrome (or type chrome://settings in address bar)
    go to 'Show advanced settings' near bottom of page, and click.
    scroll down to 'System' and untick (i.e. disable)  'Use hardware acceleration when available'
    restart chrome

    this may work (I have had a similar problem, and I found this solution on Ubuntu forums)
