That particular message is not from your graphics driver, so it's not relevant.
My graphics driver is 'amdgpu'. You would need to check all the messages
issued by whatever graphics driver you are using.

That's my situation here. Some graphic things in Firefox don't work
correctly, but
at least it doesn't crash. Your situation might be different. So I'm
just suggesting
to check your logs as a first step, before complaining that something "doesn't
work", if the log already told you that it won't work because it isn't
supported.
