Like Julien Cristau said during my commute back from work, please try to update xorg-server to 1.4.2, this will most likely fix your issues.

Please also try using EXA instead of XAA (in your xorg.conf)

If that doesn't work, we'll try something else :)

Well I've read the letter in the mailinglist and am installing xorg-1.4.x at the moment. I used EXA a while ago and it went okay only with 2.1.1 version of driver. Nevertheless, it caused a hardlock whenever smth GL was executed. As to present EXA on 2.4.2 it causes a refresh bug, when a window ceases updating it's content after 4 from the focusing.

Thank you, with xorg-1.4.X the problem is gone
