Canvas not showing and no webgl acceleration - OSX

Hello,

On the latest version of High Sierra I cannot view canvas elements. For example http://www.kevs3d.co.uk/dev/phoria/test0.html shows white, while on Safari I can view a spinning cube. However, if I open the inspector and I hover over the canvas element the preview shows the cube. Setting the gfx.canvas.azure.accelerated to disabled makes the canvas show.

Also if I run the WebGL aquarium demo I get 1 fps while Safari gets 60.

This did not solved my issue. Disabling hardware acceleration fixes the canvas bug.

Try a refresh, about:support then click "refresh firefox". Also if your on the nVidia webdrivers make sure to update to the latest ones after each OSX update, sometimes you got to wait a day or so...

That did not help either. I downloaded version 55 and everything is working fine (56 has the same issue as 57).

Firefox 55 reports WebGL 1 Driver Version as 2.1 NVIDIA-10.29.10 378.10.10.10.25.102 while version 57 reports as 4.1 NVIDIA-10.29.10 378.10.10.10.25.102, so a different OpenGL version is used.
