Zack,
What kind of graphics card do you have? Some support:
Option "HWCursor" "0" or Option "HWCursor" "1"
To turn the hardware cursor capabilities off or on, respectively. This
Option is in the Device section of /etc/X11/XF86Config. IIRC, some
cards exhibit problem you are seeing when HwCursor is enabled.
