Bug Description

When using alt-tab or <windows> key to display task switcher or new unity menu, the items are put into background - e.g. I can see task switcher on empty screen, but not on screen with windows. I see it on screen with windows on background.

The same apply for <windows> unity menu. After restart, the features works for some time as expected (e.g. task switcher is put into foreground, has low Z order), but sudently the system start to show them with high Z, and keep doing so until next system restart.

I believe this might be caused by poor i915 GPU support, so I would like to hear if others are experiencing the same problems. I am running 11.11 on HP mini.
