The version of Mozilla is the last 34.0.5.

The problem appears at the penultimate version it seems.
Can you go to about:support and copy-paste your graphics information here, please?

Not sure if this is graphics or webgl, but either way... Milan, can you have a look? :-)

(Xavier, your GPU driver seems pretty old (2010) - it seems like AMD can provide you with newer ones from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download , which might fix the problem for you sooner than we can patch it)

Let's see if the updated driver fixes this problem - we may need to blacklist this combination if it does.

It's perfect the problem is resolved. 

Thank you very much and sorry for the no-problem of Mozilla.
Great news, thanks for the update.  Can you give us the new version of the driver you now have?

David, let's get the original one blacklisted

Attached patch patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Block D3D11 for ATI versions <= 8.783.2.2000 on Windows 7. This driver version is from November 2010.

The wiki page says we block < 8.741 (June 2010), but bug 792190 changed this so that it's now < 8.62. It looks like the intent was for D3D9 though, so this entry is D3D11 specific.

It's not obvious to me that this is a layers problem and not a WebGL problem. It would be nice to have some more information about the problem before blocking.

Can we just block everything for this exact driver rev then? The drivers are very old, and the user upgraded theirs already. Unless we have a way of re-reproducing this.

We could for sure. It would be good to have an idea how many users this will affect but maybe we should just do it. Do we need to block on more OS's than just Windows 7?

FWIW, the latest 'legacy' drivers (for Radeon HD devices up to the 4xxx series) on AMD's website all have version 8.970.100.xxxx. The only OS they don't offer those for is Windows XP, which only supports up to D3D9.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Without understanding what the cause is, we should probably block all features.

Okay, this just blocks the specific driver version for all features.
