I had a somewhat similar problem. Well actually it was worse, because
I could not start my x-server at all. Bug report:
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-x@lists.debian.org/msg07946.html
Personally I solved my problem by downgrading my x-server from 4.2 to
4.0. I don't know if this will work for you, but at least it might
tell you whether you have a software problem or a hardware problem :)
Good luck
