I was getting a similar issue running gnome/sawfish.
What I did was to add the line:
Option "UseFBDev"
into the Section "Device" of my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.
The entire section looks like:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
Driver "radeon"
Option "UseFBDev"
Option "AGPMode" "4"
This seems to have done the trick.
