X doesn't update until the mouse moves (not HAL related)

Hi,
I have a perplexing problem on FreeBSD 7.2 where the X server freezes
unless the mouse is moved, however it isn't HAL related - I have tried
the usual fix (which worked on my laptop and others). I also have tried
rebuilding X without HAL support and it _still_ happens.
I notice that GL apps don't work properly and I get a message saying
that IRQs don't appear to work and that reminded me of a commit which I
think fixed it, however I am not sure if it has been MFC'd (or if it
would fix the problem).
The hardware is a Supermicro C2SBA+ which has G33 video onboard:
(II) intel(0): Creating default Display subsection in Screen section
"Builtin Default intel Screen 0" for depth/fbbpp 24/32
(==) intel(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(==) intel(0): RGB weight 888
(==) intel(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) G33
(--) intel(0): Chipset: "G33"
(--) intel(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xC0000000
(--) intel(0): IO registers at addr 0xD2300000
(==) intel(0): Using EXA for acceleration
(II) intel(0): 2 display pipes available.
Any help appreciated, thanks!
PS please CC me as I am not on the list.
