Actually, to a large degree it's a graphics driver and operating system
thing. A number of graphics drivers have problems with the way we are
using the 3D functionality and acceleration support - up to crashes -
and we need to disable those things there, and some operating systems
and OS versions either don't support everything we need in that area or
don't have well-enough-tested support on our side finished yet.
As most of Mozilla software users are on Windows and newer
software/hardware generally has more capabilities in those areas, recent
versions of Windows with recent graphics cards and drivers have a higher
chance of good acceleration support than older drivers/cards or other
OSes - on Mac it works in some cases, on Linux we don't have
acceleration turned on anywhere yet.
You can try to go to the bottom of the Help/Troubleshooting
(about:support) page and tell us what the "Graphics" section there says,
it should have some relevant information.

Oh, neat, I never knew about that "about" one before. I just knew
Config, and Plugins.
At about:support it says:
Graphics
Adapter Description 0x22600,0x20400
WebGL Renderer NVIDIA Corporation -- NVIDIA GeForce 9400M OpenGL
Engine -- 2.1 NVIDIA-1.6.36
GPU Accelerated Windows 3/3 OpenGL
no idea what any of that means
