Bug Description

Correction - this only happens when blurr is disabled.
After the newest update I started seeing strange glitches in unity. When opening the dash and moving the cursor to an icon, the background under the icon turns black. Also, I have noticed the panel background blinking black when revealing the menubar. This happens all the time.

The help dialog that pops up when holding the super key also looks wrong - the background seems completely transparent and the text is unreadable.

I am using the fglrx driver with an Radeon Mobility card. Before the update no problems like this have been observed.
Attaching screenshot of the dash.
