I did it by making a custom cursor, and setting that as the cursor as 
the second line of my xinitrc.

My custom cursor has just a single pixel. It's essentially invisible 
on a TV screen. When debugging it's useful to be able to see something 
on a VGA screen.   However, you could just as easily make it have no 
pixels set at all for a completely invisible cursor.

then it's just: 

/usr/X11R6/bin/xsetroot -cursor /etc/X11/dot /etc/X11/dot
