I am using Mac OS X 10.7.3 with gfxCardStatus 2.1 installed and set to discrete mode only. My computer has Intel HD Graphics 3000 and 6770M discrete graphics.However the syslog shows that the computer system is crashing with the integrated graphics driver, in fact Firefox cannot be integrated using graphics?During a power outage, my Mac was plugged in, and when they were plugged together, gfxCardStatus TVs can only be used discreetly. When it is definitely disabled, it is set to “built-in only”. I usedUsed Firefox Aurora Build ID: Mozilla / 5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv: 12.0a2) Gecko / 20120227 Firefox / 12.0a2, and Firefox session was considered open for several days, some have and further change gfxCardStatus varies from only built-in to unobtrusive. (I do not use dynamic switching)This is usually not reproducible. <br /><div style="background: rgba(156, 156, 156, 0.07);margin:20px 0 20px 0;padding:20px 10px 20px 10px;border: solid 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.03);text-align: left;"><h2><span class="ez-toc-section" id="Recommended-2"></span>Recommended<span class="ez-toc-section-end"></span></h2> <p>Is your PC running slow?

Like Firefox, almost other user-mode programs cannot build on these things, but they can exacerbate the lack of kernel-mode functionality (such as video card drivers).In these cases, we can only add workarounds for the worst cases. </pre> <pre> Gary, in bug 713305, if from yesterday (must be night) we are forcing Firefox to stay on discrete GPU when the WebGL context is active. In fact, fault-tolerant gpus WebGL content is well known for being the very latest in history.a list of system instability. When clients use WebGL, as you do in Firefox, this is what could potentially prevent this crash. If you're not using WebGL, I can't see what to do: we don't, if you want Firefox to stay on hidden GPU in all your efforts, as we stated earlier, we have a lot of legitimate player complaints received about the discharge batteries. </pre> <p><img decoding="async" src="/posts/firefox-causes-kernel-panic.jpg" style="margin-top:20px; margin-bottom:20px; display: block; margin: 0 auto;" alt="firefox causes kernel panic"></p> <pre> (In response to Benoit Jacob from [: bjacob] thought # 3)> a source of variability in the system.
