You are redrawing your sprite while the mouse pointer is being
displayed: this is a bad thing because it confuses both my pointer
drawing code and in some circumstances the SVGA bank switching routines.
Call show_mouse(NULL) at the start of your drawing routine, and
show_mouse(screen) at the end of it, and all will be well...
