unknown cairo format 3
trying to use firefox via RDP / VNC on ubuntu 12.04, it crashes immediately, even in "safe mode" startup. From CLI it shows [GFX1]: Unknown cairo format 3 Is there some setting that can be changed in a config file to get around this? As it crashes on startup, will it be able to find an update? The system details below are wrong, as i'm having to use my old windows system to submit this, which is also the box i'm doing the RDP/VNC on. Chrome works just fine, btw. On ubuntu, via remote X.

Thanks, but it looks like the big dogs have already run through - ubuntu had 2 firefox updates today, after which, firefox works again! (there were no other updates that ran, just 2 for firefox, which is now 44.0.1) Thanks again for looking, and thanks to whomever fixed the problem.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
