Public bug reported:
I installed the gnome-shell package, logged out and selected 'GNOME' on
the LightDM login screen. When I logged in all of the interface is
blurry/garbled/distorted and text is unreadable. The desktop icons and
applications like Nautilus are fine but the top panel, bottom
notifications and the 'dashboard' thing were all basically unusable.
I tried uninstalling the proprietory AMD/ATI driver to see if the open
source graphics driver worked better but after reboot selecting 'GNOME'
at login took me to the same interface as 'GNOME CLASSIC'.
I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 with an AMD Radeon HD 5000 Series graphics card.
I've attached a screenshot of the broken Gnome Shell interface.
