you are trying to run a qtembedded project (with its own graphic server)
in a windows manager running under X : this means both write to the
framebuffer leading to your problem (qt draws the interface and the green
background and when you move the mouse X refresh the area with it's content
(and thus fluxbox's one)).

The solution is :
- either to kill X and run your application with qws then that will work (you
may need to add some parameters in the environment variable QWS_MOUSE_PROTO 
for the input devices)
- either to compile your application with qt for X and run it under X (but I
think buildroot doesn't support QT for X so you are on your own here)

Eric
