After updating to Xubuntu 24.10, WebGL no longer works on Firefox (v. 131.03.03) due to nvidia-driver-560
After updating to Xubuntu 24.10 from 24.04, WebGL no longer works on Firefox (v. 131.03.03), while it works fine in Chrome.
In about:support I see:
Driver Informations WSI WebGL 1 - Renderer driver WebGL 1 WebGL creation failed:
WebglAllowWindowsNativeGl:false restricts context creation on this system. () Exhausted GL driver options. (FEATURE_FAILURE_WEBGL_EXHAUSTED_DRIVERS)
Renderer driver WebGL 2 WebGL creation failed:
AllowWebgl2:false restricts context creation on this system. ()
webgl.enable-prototype-webgl2 is set to true webgl.force is set to true webgl.osmesalib is set to true
Wayland has not yet been implemented on Xubuntu, so I am still using X11.
I have the same issue even when running Firefox in safe mode.
After a few attempts, it seems the issue is related to the Nvidia drivers. I uninstalled the drivers using the command:
sudo apt purge nvidia-driver
rebooted the system (now running with the Nouveau drivers), and the sites with WebGL worked. Then I rebooted into maintenance mode and tried to install the previous drivers, nvidia-driver-535, but it seems they are no longer available in Xubuntu 24.10. In fact, nvidia-driver-560 is installed along with some files from nvidia-driver-535, so the problem reappeared.
I have an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Super.
Any suggestions?
