Upon installing GNOME3 v1.0.0 32bit (openSUSE 11.4 platform) available on
GNOME3.org, updating it and installing ATI proprietary driver 11.3 I've noticed
the following:

1. Activities bar is corrupted displaying horizontal color bars and and grey
icons. The opened application icon is drawn ok. Behavior isn't affected but
experience is affected.

2. For all the rest, everything seems to be working fine (including hardware
detection).

3. Please consider that it is important to use ATI proprietary driver on
laptops mainly for optimal thermal performance.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and install i686 GNOME3 (1.0.0) Live from gnome3.org.
2. Update the system through zypper
3. Download and install (RPM for 11.4) ATI fglrx 11.3.
4. Login into GNOME3/gnome-shell.
Actual Results:
Corrupted activities bar (though I'm not the right person to debug this, but
seems related to transparencies).

Screenshot does not capture the bar, only the background, so no screenshot.

Expected Results:
Normal activities bar.
