1629191 - Failed to create WebGL context: WebGL creation failed on Manjaro Firefox Developer Edition version 75.0b11

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1623885

(Core :: Graphics: CanvasWebGL, defect)

Description

[maxwell.brayden.anderson]

Attachment: Screenshot_2020-04-10_19-15-09.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:75.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/75.0

Steps to reproduce:

I was developing a WASM application, and, after updating dependencies, compiled and ran the program.

Actual results:

A virtually unchanged program didn't show any content on the canvas element, and the dev console stated:

Failed to create WebGL context: WebGL creation failed:

• tryNativeGL
• Exhausted GL driver options.

This led me to believe the bug wasn't in my software or any of it's dependencies, and I attempted to google solutions to the problem with no avail.

Expected results:

The program should have run a graphical application within the canvas element on the site.

Is this on Ubuntu 20.04 by any chance? If so, it is probably https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdrm/+bug/1872586.

Nevermind, I hadn't read the "Manjaro" bit in the bug title. Did Manjaro get a recent libdrm update?

Manjaro is similar to Arch, so this is very likely bug 1623885.
Let me know if this is still a problem on Nightly!
