Implementations/Firefox

Availability

• Installation instructions:

1. Download a Firefox nightly build
2. Open about:config and search for "webgl"
3. Double-click the "enabled_for_all_sites" preference to change it to "true"

• Requires an OpenGL 2.0-capable GPU and drivers. In particular, most flavours of Intel's integrated GPUs will not work (such as the GMA900/GMA950 often found in laptops).
• If OpenGL is not available, or for testing/debugging purposes, software rendering can be used through OSMesa (off-screen Mesa), by setting the "webgl.osmesalib" variable to point to the OSMesa shared library (typically /usr/lib/libOSMesa.so). Note that the OSMesa library is required to use "gl" prefixes, not "mgl".
