Ok, so If I change the cursor to be visible, does the 770 work with any
usb mouse? Or is there a configuration change I need to make to the X
server?
This is for the use case "I'm traveling and have 3 hours to tinker in a
hotel and want to use a travel mouse and keyboard to hack a python/ruby
ditty to tabulate my expenses" - which is a pretty hard sell to anyone
other than the developer crowd.

Any usb keyboard should work, but mouse support seems to be another
story. Just hooking up a usb mouse doesn't appear to work. I believe
this is because the X server is tweaked out to work with the touch
screen and compatibility with a mouse (like showing a cursor to report
it's position) wasnt considered important.

You can see the cursor if you remove the symbolic
link /home/user/.icons.
(But that is where my knowledge ends and X geniuses need to step in.)
Yep, we are using a 'invisible cursor theme' for Gtk, it is used instead
of X defaults. You can remove link, or if you want to use own
cursorimage instead of invisible one you can simply copy it to
'/usr/share/icons/xcursor-transparent/cursors/transp'.
The reason for using this theme is that cursor icon is used for tap&hold
animation, therefore we actually still have cursor (would be also
possible to hide completely from X server by disabling driver funcs
implementing that).
