GUI updates only when mouse is moving.

I have just got KDE4 working and I'm not 100% sure if this is an X.Org issue or what, nothing updates unless I move the mouse. I can write text and most of the time it doesn't appear before I move the mouse. But sometimes the text appears as it should. The same happens to all animations, like the browser (Firefox and Konqueror) animation indicating the page is being loaded.
 
Now I have xorg.conf, made by [cmd=]Xorg -configure[/cmd]. No difference, still exactly the same as before, and no I don't have AllowEmptyInput.
 
You may have had an xorg.conf, but it was not in the location you expected. Many people wrongly put it in /etc/X11, when it really should be in /usr/local/etc/X11.

Please put you /var/log/Xorg.0.log on pastebin.com and post a link to it.
 
From a strict ports vs base system standpoint, yes. But /etc/X11/xorg.conf will function just fine without any modifications.

Plus, xorg.conf(5):
Code:
       xorg.conf configuration file is searched for in the following places when
       the server is started as a normal user:

           /etc/X11/<cmdline>
           /usr/local/etc/X11/<cmdline>
           /etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
           /usr/local/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
           /etc/X11/xorg.conf
           /etc/xorg.conf
           /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
           /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf
           /usr/local/lib/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
           /usr/local/lib/X11/xorg.conf
