What's the point of tab browsing in v29.0.1 if you can't switch tabs by clicking them? Is it only my laptop?

I upgraded to 29.0.1 and now I can't switch between tabs by clicking them, I'm forced to do CTRL+TAB. Is this a bug or is it my laptop?

Clicking on a tab should change to that tab.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode
While you are in safe mode;
Firefox Options > Advanced > General.
Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart

It did work, but when restarting, it stopped working again. I disabled Tab Mix Plus 0.4.1.2.02 and everything is working fine, so it was the add-on that was messing with the tabs.

Thanks for your help.
