Yeah, I have seen it many times. What XServer are you using? If you have
an S3 chip and are using XSERVER_SVGA, try using XSERVER_S3 instead.

I have not seen it recently, though. That could be one of two reasons: 
either upgrading to 3.3.6, or swithching from SVGA to S3 XSERVERs.

ACHTUNG! A word of warning. If you have a Diamond Stealth with an S3 chip,
and for some reason NEED the XSERVER_SVGA (e.g, like me, you have a bttv
TV Card), DO NOT upgrade to 3.3.6, as SVGA breaks its support for S3, at
least for some chips, it seems.

Also, do you have a second input device for X? I once tried using two
mice (for experimentation only!), and that was a sure-fire way of getting
that problem to exist straight away.
