Details

Description:
With the latest gnome-shell after switching from graphical screen to another virtual screen (graphical or text) the background on the all graphical screens become corrupted (line on the screenshots). And it changes with pieces of windows appearing on it. Really live background ;).
In the tray all icons are the same (look at screenshot-1) and it changes on I don't understand what condition (round robin? :) ).
It is very funny (especially with beta driver, cause don't crash) but not very beautiful.
On the shutdown I have this in the messages log:
gnome-settings-[3094]: segfault at 7fb5f972e210 ip 00007fb5f972e210 sp 00007fffffe1c368 error 14 in libdbus-1.so.3.5.5[7fb5f9970000+42000]

With nvidia 270.41.19 it worse. Desktop becomes very slow and after some mouse actions/clicks - total session crash.

Additional in
* package version(s)
gnome-shell 3.0.2-1
nvidia-beta 275.09.04-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Log in in gnome-shell
2. Ctlr-Alt-f1 or switch to another user.
3. Return to the first screen
4. Show begin
