It probably works here because the bug is only present if you are using
a cursor theme.

It is  bug in XFree86 4.3.0. Not the window manager.

The "nv" driver is for Nvidia cards. You Radeon 7500 uses the "radeon"
driver.

Already in bugzilla. Also check the list archives. The fix was posted to
the list last week. Which is to recompile the XFree86 SRPM with the
patch to fix the bug.

A work around I did not mention last week that should work (untested by
me) is to either.. "export XCURSOR_CORE=yes" or place in your
~/.Xresources file... "Xcursor.core   yes". Using this work around you
will lose the new fancy cursor theme. :-(

This bug effects ALL Radeon cards when used with multiple monitors.
