Updated Firefox 42 -> 43.0.3 on another system with different hardware. Same symptoms as above, but I'm not sure if it's the same issue. bp-49d54d5c-412f-4e78-ae62-0cb142160104

We've only ever seen 3 crashes reported against Desktop Firefox builds, most of the time those happen in Android Firefox. Best file a bug report if you have a reproducible case for that crash. Getting back to the original crash, yours is the only report I'm seeing. I suspect if this was a bug in Firefox that we'd have more reports. Could you please double check that this is not an issue with your system?
(In reply to Anthony Hughes, QA Mentor (:ashughes) from comment #3) > Could you please double check that this is not an issue with your system? Is there anything special that I should be looking into? So far, Firefox seems to be the only crashing program on that system.
Even looking at six months of crash data and yours is the only two reports I see. It's possible that other users are having this problem and aren't reporting it but I know how likely that is. I honestly don't know what you could check as it could be any number of things, including hardware or software. I would probably check to see if rolling back to Firefox 42 makes the issue disappear. If not, try rolling back some of the recent Fedora updates. If that doesn't work maybe try reporting this to the Fedora community to see if anyone else is seeing the issue and figured out a work around.
Fixed by resetting "layers.acceleration.force-enabled". See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1297204
