Of course, I'm fully aware of that. Fortunately I do not need to run any
window manager, and the one and only application that is supposed to run
on a regular basis is a fullscreen SDL "chooser" application, which
happens to show the root window mouse cursor. I'm sure that it's
possible from within SDL to toggle the cursor visibility, but the
transparent cursor works fine without tinkering with the SDL app's
sources.

I would give it a try, but I have only touched gdb a few times. Is there
any online documentation available about creating useful output, or
could you send me terse intructions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am not
quite sure how to produce a dump that would be helpful. Heck, I wouldn't
know how to produce a dump at all. ;)
