Direct2D is not enabled even if the parameter gfx.direct2d.force-enabled is set to true. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Minefield with fresh profile on system with Intel G965/ GMAx3000. 2. Check about Direct2D status from about:support Actual Results: Direct2D status is false. Direct2D acceleration is not enabled as evident from running demonstration benefiting from it. Expected Results: Direct2D should be enabled and used. Device ID: 29a2 Vendor ID: 8086 1. Internet Explorer 9 Beta can utilize Direct2D. 2. Fresh profile and fresh OS install don't help in enabling the feature. 3. The bug can be reproduced on both Windows 7 x86 and x64 , with x86 build of Minefield. 4. Direct3D9 is enabled by default. DirectWrite us disabled by default, although it can be force-enabled.

Can you provide a full graphic section of the "about:support" page ?

Anurag, is it fixed now in the latest nightlies?

As of 03 Feb 2011 GMT, the bug has not been fixed with latest availible nightly build. The current about:support states, (with fresh profile) Graphics Adapter Description Intel(R) G965 Express Chipset Family Vendor ID 8086 Device ID 29a2 Adapter RAM Unknown Adapter Drivers igdumd64 igdumdx32 Driver Version 8.15.10.1930 Driver Date 9-23-2009 Direct2D Enabled false DirectWrite Enabled false (6.1.7600.20830, font cache n/a) WebGL Renderer Google Inc. -- ANGLE -- OpenGL ES 2.0 (ANGLE 0.0.0.541) GPU Accelerated Windows 1/1 Direct3D 9

This can only be a driver issue and/or a limitation of this graphics card making it fail during D2D initialization. Not much that we can do to help. The starting point would be to debug this to see precisely where it's failing. It would be interesting to know if any other D2D app works on your system. For example, IE9 (assuming there's a way to tell whether it's using D2D)

Your GPU has a maximum texture size of 2048, but Firefox requires 4096.

D2D Works fine in IE9, and apps written with WMF. For example, 1. Performance in IE9 -> http://i.imgur.com/o3biG.png 2. Performance in FF4 -> http://i.imgur.com/9v7HK.png DirectWrite will also work on my Hardware should I force enable it.

Also, as listed here -> http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-gma-3000-and-x3000-developers-guide/ For G965, Max 3D texture is 8092 x 8092 x 256. Maximum 2D texture size is 4K x 4K which I hope implies 4096 (1k = 1024?) Apart from that, G965 in fully supporting Pixel Shader 3.

Yeah, indeed, it's not clear why it's failing, since this intel site says that it's supporting 4K textures. Together with the fact that IE9 is happily doing D2D here (see benchmark result), I'm reopening this. But working on it is going to be tedious until some developer can reproduce the issue.

Oh, look --- it's using D3D9 layers. This means that D3D10 failed. So the problem is about D3D10, not D2D specific.

Have you tried updated drivers according to https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/Blocked_Graphics_Drivers ? Then, try with Firefox 7.

I have. (In reply to :aceman from comment #12) > Have you tried updated drivers according to > https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/Blocked_Graphics_Drivers ? Then, try > with Firefox 7. I have. I have the exact version mentioned on both my Windows XP and Windows 8 partitions. On Windows 8 I even downgraded to make sure it didn't have to be the exact version. Granted, mine is the 950, not the 965, but I was told to respond here in Bug 604771. I'm guessing it's probably the same basic issue. I may play around with 3D Analyze, and see if I can trick Firefox into thinking the card is compatible.

Oh, and here's the graphics section of my about:support on Windows XP. (I'll do Windows 8 in a bit) Adapter Description: Mobile Intel(R) 945 Express Chipset Family Vendor: ID0x8086 Device: ID0x27ae Adapter RAM: Unknown Adapter Drivers: igxprd32 Driver Version: 6.14.10.4926 Driver Date: 2-15-2008 WebGL Renderer: Google Inc. -- ANGLE (Mobile Intel(R) 945 Express Chipset Family) -- OpenGL ES 2.0 (ANGLE 1.0.0.1041)GPU Accelerated Windows0

Forgot to note in previous responses that I'm using the latest 14.0 beta (as of this post.) I'd tell you which beta, but it's not mentioned in about: or about:support.
