Bugzilla Automation <bugzi...@freebsd.org> has asked freebsd-gecko (Nobody) <ge...@freebsd.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 267000: www/firefox declines to start if no GPU present. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267000
--- Description --- www/firefox and www/firefox-esr both "decline" to start if no GPU is present. This is a significant regression in firefox w.r.t. (say) jails, vms, and any other situation where you might have multiple virtual VNC windows without any GPU present. ... now I could have this wrong --- is there a library that need be installed that isn't installed by default by installing Xvnc and firefox? (then it needs be a port requirement). ... but in the alternative, can we force firefox to work (and just break only when webgl ... or whathaveyou is engaged)? to reproduce: - create a jail on 13.1 - install firefox-esr and tightvnc - start vncserver - (probably start a window manager, etc.) - try to start firefox(-esr)
