Compare that to terminfo.src:

setal=\E[58:2::%p1%{65536}%/%d:%p1%{256}%/%{255}%&%d:%p1
%{255}%&%dm,
Seems like NetBSD's infocmp (or terminfo) doesn't support setal,
sounds like a bug.
You have to use `infocmp -x' to see "extra" capabilities like `setal'.
Again, a couple things seem to get lost (RGB, CO#8, initc@, setb@,
setf@) but the colors are there.
Ditto.
I looked at the 'use' and some of them are empty (which makes me think
NetBSD's infocmp or terminfo are missing more features) and then I
found:
# Reconstructed from /usr/share/misc/terminfo.cdb
screen|VT 100/ANSI X3.64 virtual terminal,
am, km, mir, msgr, xenl,
colors#8, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, pairs#64,
...
So it looks to me like the 'colors' from the 'screen' entry via the
'tmux' entry overwrite the colors defined by 'xterm+direct'.
This looks like a bug in NetBSD. Minimal reproducer:
```
$ cat tit
tit|TermInfo Test,
# if the second number is >32767, it disappears!
use=num, use=max,
# putting the bigger one first makes "promotion" happen.
# use=max, use=num,
max|any number > INT16_MAX,
colors#32768,
num|any num < INT16_MAX,
num#111,
$ tic -x tit
$ infocmp -1x -A /tmp/tit.cdb tit
# Reconstructed from /tmp/tit.cdb
tit|TermInfo Test,
num#111,
$ /opt/ncurses/bin/tic -x -o tit.d tit
$ /opt/ncurses/bin/infocmp -1x -A tit.d tit
# Reconstructed via infocmp from file: tit.d/t/tit
tit|TermInfo Test,
colors#0x8000,
num#111,
$
```
(xterm-direct analyzed this way also only reports
xterm-direct|xterm with direct-color indexing,
...
colors#0x7fff, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, pairs#0x7fff,
...
)
Same bug, I think: if any num. capability has a value >0x7fff
(INT16_MAX), then that terminfo entry should get "promoted" to use
32-bit integers. This isn't happening.
Then it'd be time for a bug report...
Yes :)

Hi,
The only option I can suggest is to try to disable gpu acceleration
("Use recommended performance settings" ->"Use hardware acceleration
when available"). Depending on the graphics card, some work decently
on NetBSD, some were causing similar symptoms to me and disabling
hardware acceleration was helping to regain usability. In general,
firefox still feels a bit more sluggish in NetBSD in comparison to
other OSes either way (with performance optimization enabled or not).
I am currently using Radeon 5700XT which has the best performance so
far I had in NetBSD and works quite well with Firefox for me. Though,
it has few bugs other bugs (occasional crashes (mainly on boot) and I
can't switch between Xorg and terminal, it causes 3/4 of the xorg
screen to become black).
Unacceptable firefox behavior with nouveau graphics card
It's been a couple of years now since I installed my current "GeForce GTX 1050 Ti" video card. It has always had "issues", especially with firefox, and it seems to be getting worse as time goes by. Symptoms generally manifest themselves as long-delay hangs (up to a minute or more, sometimes longer than my limited patience will tolerate). During these hangs, firefox seems to behave almost normal - menus drop down, mouse clicks on the "x" close tabs, new tabs can be opened, etc. But other things, such as cursor changing to a finger when moved over a link, or trying to execute a search, or even a simple reload-page are ignored. As I said, this has been getting worse over time, and with a recent update of the OS (running 10.99.4, updating from October to last week) firefox has become almost unuseable. I can search for things on newegg.com but cannot display interesting results. So, I'm looking for a few things: 1) Does this sound familiar to anyone else? Or am I just a set-of-1 ? 2) Are there any alternatives to firefox? 3) Any recommendations on potential replacement of the video card?
