Good afternoon, since the upgrade to Gnome Shell 44.1 I have to start Firefox twice. The first time I only get a black window but can close it from the top menue. After that it starts normal. When starting from a terminal I get the following message which appears at 2nd successfull attempt as well: ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. Anyone else experiencingthis and an idea how to get an error message? Thanks Frank

Hi, just for starters, I have that same message every time I launch Firefox, so, it doesn't seems relevant -I have no issues so far. Considering the "only get a black window but can close it from the top menu" I would think of some window manager issue, maybe worth to ask/check specifically with the Gnome Shell guys? Kind regards!

Hi, the same message appears on my machine, too, but Firefox works without noticeable issues. I snipped the warnings I get when closing Firefox. • rocketmouse@archlinux ~ $ firefox ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment.

Firefox startet sowohl im safe-mode als auch mit einem neuen Profil ganz normal.

Hi Frank, since safe-mode does the trick an extension is much likely the culprit. You need to find out which extension it is and disable or remove it. Use a new profile and enable one extension after the other, until you get a black window. Regards, Ralf

Regards, Ralf all extensions work as expected...

If all "Extensions", "Themes" and "Plugins" shown by "about:addons" work as expected and you guess that the issue is related to an upgraded of gnome shell, I second the idea to send either a request to the "Gnome Shell guys" (and gals) or else to send a request to the Mozilla folks.

Hi, I had the same issue on my workstation but not on my laptop. This weekend I found a site recommending to add "MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1" into `/etc/environment` (no link, since I cannot find the page anymore). Since I did, I do no longer need to restart Firefox. Maybe you give it a try as well. ente
