Nope, the intent is to be able to plug a mouse into the running device that is exhibiting the "bug" and debug accordingly. If I restart X, I loose the context of the bug.

Simon,

Sorry about that. I completely overlooked your first comment regarding
emailing the Xorg mailing list.

I'll take a look at the Xfixes Hidecursor code.

I'm hoping I can do something that is global within X for all my windows.

Other people have recommended using "unclutter" but that has a number of undesirable attributes, such as when a button is depressed, the cursor is visible and depending on how fast you want it to remove the cursor after
inactivity, it starts to each more and more CPU cycles polling.

Is it not possible to just remove -nocursor from your debugging
machine's X incantations?
