   Then perhaps we should define what format the HW cursor is supposed
to be in.  

   This data comes from the client doesn't it?
Does the protocol specify the endian it's supposed to be in?

   At the moment I'm assuming the data passed to the HW cursor interface
will change when the SW cursor gets fixed.  Maybe not though.
