I am also affected. I have an intel 945 graphics chipset. I have attached my lspci -nn.
This issue is known upstream : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411831
I discovered the upstream bug because it was listed between the known issues for Firefox RC2 in the Linux and Unix section as a problem with the nvidia driver : http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0rc2/releasenotes/#issues
I found a comment which is potentially interesting : from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411831#c101 :
[quote=Luke Hutchison ] If anybody is wondering why this bug magically fixed itself in their distro recently, it's because Ubuntu and Fedora have inverted the default behavior of the XAANoOffscreenPixmaps option.

In case you're trying to debug this, you may need one of the following options to bring back the broken behavior:
Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "false" Option "XAAOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
