You should report this to your graphic card driver vendor. A system crash is always the fault of the kernel and never the fault of a user mode application like Firefox.

dchan, renaming this bug -- my understanding from comment 0 is that this is not specific to HD 5000 and also reproduces on other cards with other driver versions. Matthias, this definitely is a driver bug --- but we are still interested in investigating mitigations, especially as this only started happening in Firefox 14. Two things would be most helpful to start working on this bug: - reproduce this bug - find a regression window Once we have a regression window we will hopefully see if we can work around this bug, or if we have to blacklist the driver.
