Thanks for the bug report, Paul.  Could you let us know what model of computer you are using, and paste or attach the information from the "about:support" page in Firefox?  (You can use the desktop version of Firefox to get this information if it's easier.)

Note: To create/remove/select profiles for Metro Firefox, you will need to run "firefox.exe -metrodesktop -p" (instead of just "-p").

Thanks for the information.  Does anyone know if we have known graphics bugs in Metro with this gpu or driver?

Kind of surprising, his D2D driver is blocked so he's using cairo as a backend. Which means the D3D compositor is having trouble.
