Splash video with nVidia logo, missing texture

When Gnome-shell is enabled, often frames are not completely finished before rendering. This shows sometimes by absent light effects or even textures, and sometimes by not rendering foreground elements. This happens often enough to make this game unplayable, even though the framerate is around 40FPS.
Attached image will demonstrate several parts of frames that got captured. This should give a little more detail on what's going wrong.
No error messages are given in dmesg or in terminal.

Running:
kernel-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64 (but also tried with Koji kernel and upstream
nouveau module)
mesa-dri-drivers-7.11-0.11.20110525.0.fc15.i686
xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.16-24.20110324git8378443.fc15.x86_64

This is known issue.
You can use my workaround posted in the bug-report until this is fixed properly.
