Can you narrow down the packages and bisect? Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this on any of the 5xx cards I have access to.
If I understand correctly, there is no known-good version of the X/kernel stack, but the regression the user experienced came with the upgrade to GNOME 3.
Please forgive my ignorance: is it possible to (temporarily) configure GNOME 3 not to take advantage of accelaration, or to start X without starting a GNOME session? That might be interesting, since then it might be possible to find some other simpler application that reproduces the same trouble and helps pinpoint what is provoking trouble from that end.
