Originally reported on Google Code with ID 2808

I'm using Firefox8 installed on Windows7x64bit and selenium-server-standalone-2.11.0.jar.
When I run script that performs native mouse actions I get the following error:

org.openqa.selenium.InvalidElementStateException: Cannot perform native interaction:
Could not load native events component.; duration or timeout: 50 milliseconds

Firefox 8 support was added in Selenium version 2.12, please upgrade and check if it
helps.

Selenium 2.12 is crashing Firefox 7. I was previously using 2.7, but it couldn't perform
native interaction with Firefox 7. So I tried 2.12, but now Firefox 7 just crashes.

@2: Please open a separate issue for that with some more details then. WebDriver's test
suite is passing for me with Firefox 7.0.1 on OS X, Windows 7 and Ubuntu, so what you're
seeing is not a general problem.
