Enabling WebGL? [Solved]

I have the proper AMD open-source graphics drivers installed and OpenGL seems to be working fine.
Yet http://www.doesmybrowsersupportwebgl.com/ gives a nay in Firefox.

Why would this happen? Are the proprietary drivers needed?

Because that site is silly?

EDIT: seems firefox disabled mine temporary: "GLContext is disabled due to a previous crash." After resetting all the "*glcontext*" in about:config it detects mine.

Why not just test with this https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/dem … ead/launch

Can you paste the "Graphics" part of your about:support in firefox?
