Ubuntu – Chrome Tab/Menu/URL bar and web pages have got really big

15.04google-chrome

On a Dell XPS 13 (9333), I am running Ubuntu 15.04 and Google Chrome Stable and since yesterday after some updates, Google Chrome has gone all weird on me.

The Tab/Menu/URL bar and web pages have got really big. I have played with the zoom settings and set zoom to 50% and that has fixed the web page sizing, but Tab/Menu/URL bar is still massive.

I have tried a Reset Chrome, in the Settings menu, and also removing and reinstalling Chrome.

No issues with Firefox or other applications.

Open a terminal (Alt+Ctrl+T or Alt+F2) and issue the following commands:

sudo -i
apt-get purge google-chrome-stable
cd /var/cache/apt/archives
dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_43.0.2357.81-1_amd64.deb
