Public bug reported:
I'm seeing random display corruption in gnome-shell widgets. The exact
appearance changes from login to login. Very often, there's random
gargabe shown in the spot of the volume indicator; the letter "i" is
also often not drawn. I'll attach a screenshot for the latter defect.
I'm using the "ati" display driver (not "fglrx").
