Is the black box problem mentioned by John Oliver #57 fixed

Quote:

Just got Beta 1 and installed the updated fglrx driver. (It was not installed already). The Unity shell resembled a number of 'black squares' jumbled up on the screen. While Unity/Compiz were running other applications flashed as well. However, when I ran sudo killall compiz, all the other apps that were open stopped flashing.

Additionally, when using the standard Gnome 2.x desktop, there is no flashing whatsoever despite the fact that compiz is running.

I'm running 11.04, 2.6.38-7. upon installing ATI/AMD FGLRX from Additional Drivers I got this problem mentioned above as well. It looks like the Panels are all black yet the desktop and non moving parts of application windows appear normal. Moving parts like loading bars are black as well.
I have a ATI Radeon HD Mobility 5650. My Laptop Serial is A665D-S6509.
