        Which version of XFree86 are you running?  I had exactly the same
problem with 4.0.3 and 4.1, when XMMS and some other apps sometimes became
completely black.  This was definitely a problem with overlay, when the
driver was filling 8-bit plane with some value instead of colorkey.  After
some correspondence with Egbert Eich the problem was fixed and 4.2 don't
have that bug.

        (But there is another bug with overlay, though...)
