Bugs with recent xorg server
Not sure if this is the place to post as there does not seem to be a slackware "report bugs" facility.

This small patch was found on their mailing list some time ago, and it seems to fix the problem, but i do not know accurately the correct configure for xorg server so as to compile it myself (for it to be used in slackware).
