I've never tested it with X -- sorry. But I have to ask what kernel is being
used? It made a lot of difference for me to actually STOP using RPi
supplied kernels and switch directly to 5.10.7.

I'm using rpi-5.9.y -branch from https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.

I tried to use rpi-5.10.y but with that raspberry is not booting up.
