WebGL doesn't work on Fedora Firefox
I keep having troubles with WebGL on Fedora Firefox. A few month ago Mesa was blacklisted and now something else seems to go wrong.
- https://get.webgl.org says: "Hmm. While your browser seems to support WebGL, it is disabled or unavailable. If possible, please ensure that you are running the latest drivers for your video card."
- mapbox-gl says: "Failed to initialize WebGL", so I cannot display any maps...
- In Chromium and Brave on Fedora or Firefox on Mac everything works as expected.
Some info from about:support:
- WebGL 1 Driver Renderer Intel Open Source Technology Center -- Mesa DRI Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 (Kaby Lake GT2)
- WebGL 1 Driver Version 3.0 Mesa 18.0.5
- WebGL 2 Driver Renderer Intel Open Source Technology Center -- Mesa DRI Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 (Kaby Lake GT2)
- WebGL 2 Driver Version 4.5 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.0.5
- HW_COMPOSITING blocked by default: Acceleration blocked by platform
- OPENGL_COMPOSITING unavailable by default: Hardware compositing is disabled
- WEBRENDER opt-in by default: WebRender is an opt-in feature unavailable by runtime: Build doesn't include WebRender
- OMTP disabled by default: Disabled by default
System:
- Kernel: 4.17.12-200.fc28.x86_64
- Firefox: 61.0.2
Last time I could work around by setting webgl.force-enabled to true in about:config.
I, too, am having this problem. Epiphany, Chromium all work fine. I remember Firefox working correctly before in itch.io so I don't know what the cause is. Have you found any other reports?
I too have this issue. WebGL support used to work for a long time in Fedora+Firefox, then it got broken in a specific version of Firefox 60 (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug....), then that was fixed and WebGL worked for a while, and now it is broken again in the most recent version of Firefox 61.
