I can confirm this bug on Firefox 3.5 downloaded from official Mozilla website
(in .tar.bz2), on Thinkpad T41 - ATI Mobility Radeon 7500. However, the

@Julián Alarcón: Great that works. I use now 3.5 RC2 from PPA and when I put:
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGL.so.1
to /usr/lib/firefox-3.5/firefox.sh (after DROPPED=abandoned) it works.
But why? When I check /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 I see it's a symlink to
