I had the same problem with XFree 4.4.0 from current and with the
x.org from dropline gnome (I haven't tried the x.org packages from
current), but only once in a while, and closing down a few
applications would solve the problem. I have reverted to XFree 4.3.0,
and the problem is gone.

Perhaps it's the driver in XFree 4.4.0 (and x.org) for our graphic
cards. I use a Matrox G400, what about you ?

I have considered getting a cheap Radeon 9200 card instead of the old
Matrox card, with the hope it will solve the problem - the G400 is
getting a bit old anyways
