Hi there,
On some of machines I use, after opening of Firefox I get empty browser
window (with menus, decorations etc) but nothing else is displayed. Its
impossible to open menu, type address, etc. The only thing you can do is
to close the window. After changing display configuration (rotate to
portrait, adding external monitor..) it starts to work as expected. You
do not even need to reopen. Moreover, it looks that Firefox was running
ok all the time but nothing was displayed.
After recent updates on some machines I get the same problem using
firefox-esr.
The only error mesg I get is:
###!!! [Parent][RunMessage] Error: Channel closing: too late to
send/recv, messages will be lost
I don't know what that message means, but I frequently get a similar
message from Firefox, despite the fact that the program is (mostly)
functional.
###!!! [Child][RunMessage] Error: Channel closing: too late to
send/recv, messages will be lost
So the message is not related to the problem
After some more tests I discovered that the problem occurs on all my
machines using integrated GPU and intel_drv.so driver (i5-2520M,
i5-2450M, i7-2600, i5-8250U). The workaround is to switch to
modesetting_drv.so or rotate to portrait. After that Firefox starts to
work as expected.
On builds based on discrete GPU (in my case Nvidia GTX) Firefox works ok.
Any ideas?
Could you confirm?
Regards
Greg
