[manjaro-dev] Fwd: manjaro troubled with firefox & vlc

I would suggest for both of these issues starting with a clean profile
(i.e. moving those in ~/.mozilla  and ~/.config/vlc).

The Firefox issue sounds like a hardware acceleration issue.

Search: "firefox linux intel 855gm"

1. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1687772
2. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1005501


The VLC issue sounds like missing files, but could well be the same
graphics issue.
