Gnome-shell 3.8 with artifacts distortions and distorted font.
I was using Ubuntu GNOME 13.10 at the time with Gnome 3.8, but this problem
also applies to any Ubuntu OS past version 12.04. When I try to run or install
Ubuntu or Ubuntu GNOME 13.10 on my Dell XT with Radeon Xpress 1250, the font is
distorted and miscellaneous graphical components are distorted on the
interface. I'm assuming it could be an issue with hardware acceleration, as I'm
running Linux Mint with the MATE desktop Environment, and I have no issues.
When I try installing the proprietary ATI/AMD driver in attempts to resolve the
issue, the OS glitches entirely, and I'm forced to reinstall.
If the Gallium driver could be fixed to support the Radeon Xpress 1250 graphics
card with GNOME 3.10/3.12, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks so much for your time and all your hard work.</pre>
