I am also affected. I have an intel 945 graphics chipset. I have
attached my lspci -nn.

This issue is known upstream :
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411831

I discovered the upstream bug because it was listed between the known issues 
for Firefox RC2 in the Linux and Unix section as a problem with the nvidia 
driver :
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0rc2/releasenotes/#issues

I found a comment which is potentially interesting :
from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411831#c101 :

[quote=Luke Hutchison ]
If anybody is wondering why this bug magically fixed itself in their distro
recently, it's because Ubuntu and Fedora have inverted the default behavior of
the XAANoOffscreenPixmaps option.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/182038/comments/111

In case you're trying to debug this, you may need one of the following options
to bring back the broken behavior:

        Option      "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "false"
        Option      "XAAOffscreenPixmaps" "true"

Seems like sweeping things under the rug to me :o)
