You can try:
{l Code}: {l Select All Code}
/ati_skybox_bug 1

I would suggest using the proprietary drivers instead of the mesa ones, though. Especially if the above command doesn't work.

May I recommend him to switch DE then? Not saying GNOME3 is necessarily bad, but GNOME3 and the official Catalyst drivers are known to not play nicely together.
