You are probably using a XFree86 server with a very buggy DGA2
implementation, such as 4.0.3 (shipped with Red Hat 7.1 for example).
Upgrading to 4.1.0 will probably solve your problem. You can obtain
it from
ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/4.1.0/binaries/ selecting
the directory suited to your platform and following the instructions
you find in the Install file.
