From https://etherpad.mozilla.org/webgl-1-0-2 :

Linux+Mac+Windows:
canvas/drawingbuffer-test.html (18 of 20 passed)

    failed: Unable to fetch WebGL rendering context for Canvas

    failed: context does not exist

    It looks like we're failing to create contexts with too-large sizes, instead of reducing the drawingbuffer size.

    Note that Chrome has been clamping drawingbuffer dimensions to 4096 unconditionally... check if doing the same would be enough to pass the test on at least some hardware.

Good Morning,

I was planing to fix that before I found this ticket. Have you started already ? Or can I fix it ?
