Street view goes to black in google maps
Solution 1:
Go to "chrome://flags" in your browser. There, under Experiments enable "Override software rendering list" and enable the "Disable WebGL" option and relaunch the browser.
Solution 2:
This isn't really a solution to the problem, but more like a band-aid. If you click on the "?" help-bubble icon, you can select the option to use the classic Google maps. That seemed to work for me using Chrome on Linux -Version 36.0.1985.125 .
