summary says it all really, i'm getting a really odd corruption around the edges of certain letters, around browser buttons, and some objects in the current build of the minefield beta, please note the 32bit firefox 4 beta is uneffected and shows no curruption, so i cant take this to amd, they'll tell me to submit a bug here because the curruption is only in minefield :)

Screenshot to illustrate what i mean:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.load minefield
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
all i have to do is be using the catalyst 11.4 preview drivers for this to happen, a sidenote here, using the same video driver set, both minefield and firefox 4 both use amd's MLAA fully, meaning its applied to everything, it looks awful, i have to either disable mlaa in catalyst control centre OR disable hardware acceleration in firefox/minefield options


the theme is irrelevant, i use the same theme on firefox 4's beta and its fine :)

64 Bit Builds are not supported as of yet.

well the last bug in minefield was fixed after i submitted a bug, and that was black rectangles appearing all on the top right of any minefield window :)

Probably duplicate of bug #635463

wasnt a duplicate, but its fixed in the latest nightly build, i can now have mlaa ON and hw acceleration OFF in minefield and everything looks fine.
