The issue is no longer present as of firefox 49 shipped by ubuntu.
(Using firefox-mozilla-build, the issue was resolved as of version 46.)
No graphics updates whatsoever from 14.04 (xserver-xorg-video-intel
2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1) should be necessary.

I can confirm the bug Jaap Woldringh mentioned.
Also, some small help on how to reset gfx.xrender.enabled to true to
work around it: look in ~/.mozilla/firefox/hashcode.default/prefs.js
for the same settings that can be configured via about:config. (It may
not be trivial to everyone how to do
I repeat this comment here, as I saw tool late that the other place

I had this bug and fixed it as in comment #11.
This was fine, on a Pentium M Toshiba laptop, using Lubuntu 14.04.
However, after the latest update of Firefox (40.0) Firefox
I apologize, I didn't mean to boss anyone around. I'm not in charge, nor am I a
maintainer or triager, I am just another user. Please don't take this as
representative of the ubuntu community.
I talked briefly with a maintainer of xserver-xorg-video-intel, and they
suggested the procedure for

We talk here about the chipset 865G (Springdale), which was released in 2003!

As I reported upstream (mozilla-bugs:1005501), the bug is due to
xserver-xorg-video-intel, and was fixed somewhere between 2:2.99.910 and
2:2.99.911 (c.f. freedesktop:79165).
The bug is therefore already fixed in 14.10, so it should be fixed in 14.04
once the 14.04.2 point release is published
It may be possible to obtain the fix for 14.04 using the Intel Graphics
Installer 1.0.7, which installs xf86-video-intel 2.99.911.

So my Internet Café machine which i upgraded to 14.04 (Trusty) is useless cause
nobody wants to work with this.
The people who use these machine are only guests, and have no account/login.
I hope this will fixed for the next Firefox

Please note that setting gfx.xrender.enabled to false cannot be a
permanent solution. It makes graphic rendering extremely sluggy over
network connections, where X client and server are not on the same
machine (and that's what X was designed for).
We deploy firefox in a client/server setup (Linux
I am on Lubuntu 14.04 with Firefox 29.0 on a Dell Dimension 2400
(Pentium 4) with the same issue. I can confirm that setting
gfx.xrender.enabled to false in about:config resolves the issue.
Thanks!
