[The Bright Side <899669@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found out that when this bug appears, what's actually happens is that
there is a console "hiding" behind the GUI. When I type anything, then
what I am actually typing is an input into the console.

So for instance, when these corruptions appear, and I type the letter
"r" (without pressing ALT-F2 first), it will restart Gnome Shell.

It's a bit hard to describe, but it's basically a mixture between GUI
and command prompt. The GUI is there, but the command prompt is there
and working, manifesting as the corruption.

I don't know how to turn off the GUI to see the actual console,
unfortunately. CTRL-ALT-F1 etc. only take me to other workspaces.
