Hi,
You don't write export VAR_NAME in env.d. In the /etc/env.d u only write
VAR_NAME="some value"
Then run env-update && source /etc/profile
In your particular case:
add in /etc/env.d/90local and not in /etc/env.d/10MozillaFirefox
(this one might get
overwritten with an upgrade):
$ vim /etc/env.d/90local
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
$ env-update && source /etc/profile
$ firefox
U have to restart u'r X session or start firefox from the shell to
"see" the new environment.
Hope it helps,
C.
