Dear Mozilla, I want to know how to execute the Firefox in our board.

I think it's the problem for the firefox excution fail that i.MX7D doesn't have the GPU and the i.MX7D doesn't support the OpenGL. So I think the firefox can execute normally if the firefox can be executed without OpenGL. Could you tell me how to execute the firefox without OpenGL?
