Blank clickable top half of screen on Linux (elementary OS) even after reinstall

The latest update of firefox gives a blank top half of the page on every page - including about:addons. Sometimes this blank bit is clickable and sometimes it is not. When opened in safe mode it does not give a blank top half and can be used. This behaviour occurs even when there are no addons installed. It occurs despite reinstallation and restarting.

Any help would be blessed.

Hardware acceleration was turned off. This resolved the problem - although would obviously prefer to be able to use openGL sometimes.
