hi sjstrey, thanks for reporting this. our developers are aware of this problem and investigating a fix for this in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1413269 in case you want to follow along.

i guess disabling hardware acceleration may be a workaround for this in the meantime: Firefox's performance settings

Here are my 5 most recent crash reports:

Thanks philipp. Disabling hardware acceleration had no effect, but I appreciate your response and will watch that thread for a resolution.

Cheers

ok, if turning off hardware acceleration wasn't successfull then please switch it back to the default. in the meantime we've found the following workaround in the associated bug report: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named webgl.1.allow-core-profiles. double-click it and change its value to false and then restart firefox once.

philipp Thank you for your help. That worked!!

Cheers

Started to get the same problem since today (Firefox 59.0.1). Config webgl.1.allow-core-profiles is already false. about:crashes is not showing any recent report

Upgraded to 59.0.2 and problem is gone!

great, thanks for reporting back!
