Firefox not working on udroid

[Githubmaniak]

I installed ubuntu 22.04 jammy xfce4 and used Termux x11 as the display, but when I run Firefox, it only shows a message that the tab has crashed.

run this in jammy

install_firefox() {
    # trigger normal installation to resolve all dependencies (fonts)
    apt-get install -y firefox
    
    # remove firefox snap and install firefox from ppa for debian package
    rm -rf /etc/apt/preferences.d/fire*
    apt remove firefox* -y
    apt update && apt install firefox software-properties-common -y
    add-apt-repository --yes ppa:mozillateam/ppa
    
echo '

    echo 'Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "LP-PPA-mozillateam:${distro_codename}";' | sudo tee /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/51unattended-upgrades-firefox

    apt remove firefox -y
    apt install firefox -y
}

I ran termux, logged into udroid, pasted it, started x11 to run Firefox, but it still doesn't work.

I am running into the same issue, but, at least in my case, the problem is deeper. Specifically in the error logs, I found mutiple warnings and errors about the xfwm4 and GL renderer.

I would like to try a possible solution by changing the default render, to something like Zink, but I have not yet found any good instructions to change it without doing a bunch of weird alias changes in the bashrc.

Ideas or suggestions are welcome to troubleshoot.
