I've done some research on this and I've attempted the fixes recommended.

I've turned off hardware acceleration and restarted firefox. No help at all

I've tried firefox in safe mode with all ad ons and plugins turned off. Still the same experience.

I've even tried re-installing firefox. Still nothing.

Can you post public links to those pages?
