I had similar problems. For me, adding either (or both!):

Option "TexturedVideo" "on"

or

Option "ModeSetClearScreen" "false"

to the "Device" section of my xorg.conf fixed the problem (sorry I
can't work out which exactly, but it should be simple for you to test
whether or not either of these will help you).
