I believe these type of problems might be fixed in XFree86-4.0.3-3.
You can obtain it from:

ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris

Does it fix the problem for you?
Comment 2 Laurent CREPET 2001-03-28 12:00:11 UTC 
I'll download 4.0.3 from your FTP directory. I hope it will fix the problem.
Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2001-07-16 08:17:04 UTC 
I cannot reproduce these problems in 4.0.3.
