Hi,

since about a month my Firefox has a strange behavior on my notebook. It starts with an empty windows with absolutely no content (not even a white blank page; just a black frame, see image). If I close and re-open it, everything is fine. So its not really a big issue. However, it's annoying. Has anyone any idea what's the problem? This never occurred on my desktop PC, which should have the exact same configuration (except for any hardware related stuff).

Thanks for your help

Try downloading another copy of Firefox, run it from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Are in X11 or Wayland? That screenshot is showing Gnome right?

I'll try to reproduce it with another copy of Firefox, but since this issue only happens sometimes, it could take a while :).

Yes the screenshot is showing Gnome and I am on X11. Can you tell my the terminal command to show all the system info you posted?

You can possibly start Firefox via a terminal window and check for error messages.

Hey there, thanks again for you answers. Sorry that it took a while to check it. What I tried so far, is that I refreshed firefox (via the help settings) and I also deleted ~/.mozilla/firefox to make a real reset an delete my old profile. Both did not solve the issue. I managed to reproduce the error inside a terminal. This was the output:

" ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment.
