For me is the same like Patrick. The problem started with the last update of Mountain Lion. The program crashes every time, when it starts.

As of 08/25/2012 Chromatic is unable to download the latest build. Perhaps Chromium changed their FTP folder structure since ver. 22?

Will an update to Chromatic be needed?

Terrible for PowerPC users who get Chromium for Intel Macs. Is the port of V8 to PPC complete? New hope for Chromium on OS X PPC.

As of 12/18 it is still not working for me. Is there something I need to be doing or are we just waiting for an update?

Hope it works again soon. I love this thing! Thanks Mr. Gecko.
