Using Unity with 11.04, full screen windows (such as chrome, firefox, or gnome screensaver) turn screen completely white. This is after upgrade from 10.10.

Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
Behaviour is very sporadic if window size takes up 50% more of the screen. Reproducible 100% of the time for full screen windows. May be related to proprietary graphics driver (used the one from repos).
Screenshot attached illustrating behaviour.
Categorised as "unity", but bug may be "metacity", "nvidia" or "compiz" related.

thanks for the bug report. Can you please first update unity to latest, if the issue still happens try to reproduce this bug in the Classic session with compiz and let us know if the issue happens there too.
