Can you please update your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 as follows?
Change it from:
> Section "Device"
> Identifier "Generic Video Card"
> Driver "vesa"
> EndSection
to:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
Driver "s3virge"
Option "SWCursor" "true"
EndSection
If you do that and restart the X server, does the problem go away?
