Kevin Brosnan gave us a workaround: There is a workaround which is to create a script that does the following. #!/bin/sh export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /path/to/firefox
In the case of Firefox 3. package from PPA, the file /usr/lib/firefox-3.5pre/firefox.sh should be modified adding: export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 I modified it, and works!!!! Additional to this, the problem seems to be from nVidia drivers, so, only people with nVidia cards have this problem .
