I think I stopped using Firefox completely when those graphics acceleration problems started. BTW, this is even a problem with older Intel drivers in Windows. And I eventually also stopped using Firefox because it becomes a sluggish monster with many addons installed. Poor quality addons are a real problem for it. -- Regards, Kai Replies to list-only preferred.
