WebGL not working on T410

Hi Folks,

http://www.zygotebody.com just opened their doors, and i'm excited! It's a 3-D human-body exploration tool. It uses webGL, however, and when I go there, I'm told that my browser doesn't have webGL enabled.

I click on the link that eventually leads me to this page: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/B ... cs_Drivers . It seems that the NVIDIA NVS 3100M has been blocklisted, at least for driver versions <= 258.96, due to crashes when using webGL.

I don't know what kind of driver version that is. I've updated my optimus drivers to their most recent on the lenovo site (NVIDIA driver version 8.17.12.7593 and Intel HD driver version 8.15.10.2253), and I don't see anything that looks liek 258.xx, etc.

Here's what I see in the about:support firefox page: Image

Has anyone else run across this issue? Any idea how I might resolve it?

Thanks!

T410 2516-CTO
Win 7 Pro x64 SP1
Firefox 11.0

For anyone else encountering this problem, the following ( from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635044 ) seems to fix the issue:
Please go to about:config, reset all your gfx.blacklist.* preferences, retry.
Firefox currently only updates this once per day. See bug 653102.
