Dear Maintainer,

after upgrading to 17.3.0-1, firefox, thunderbird and chromium don't start or more accuratly seems to not display ([AMD/ATI] Oland GL [FirePro W2100])

Starting firefox in gdb:
Start it from the beginning? (y or n) y
Starting program: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox 
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
[New Thread 0x7fffe4844700 (LWP 9406)]
[Thread 0x7fffe4844700 (LWP 9406) exited]
Error: GDK_BACKEND does not match available displays
[Inferior 1 (process 9345) exited with code 01]

Downgrade to 17.2.5 fix the issue.
