Make a file called blank.xbm containing the following:
---//---
#define blank_width 1
#define blank_height 1
#define blank_x_hot 0
#define blank_y_hot 0
static unsigned char blank_bits[] = {
0x00};
---//---
Then do "xsetroot -cursor blank.xbm blank.xbm" . Now your root pointer will
be blank.
This probably won't completely solve your problem, though, since it's possible
for other mouse pointers will be used if a window at the pointer location
requests them.
Give it a try anyway. It might be good enough, since you say this will be an
arcade machine.
