I am running Ubuntu 1804 on a Macbook Pro 2011 model. Whenever I use Chrome (v67) and Firefox (60.01) and I want to do a "Attach File" type action (especially in Gmail), the browsers freeze - go dark. I need to ESC to get rid of it.



Any ideas what I could look at? It worked fine with 16.04 on the same Macbook.
