Re: Pointer is big white block...

   Probably a driver bug that has been fixed in newer versions of
XFree86 (yours is pretty old).  You can probably get a usable pointer
with your current server anyhow by adding:

  Option "SWCursor"

to the Section "Device" of the XF86Config file.  That will disable
the obviously broken hardware cursor support.

Thus far, everything is working and the mouse/pointer tracking and clicking are working great, however, instead of a pointer, all I have is a big white block about 1" by 1" square.  Am I missing something as far as configuring a pointer is concerned? Or is this a video card issue?  Any hints on how to resolve this?  Remember, I'm very new to this so speak slooowwwwllllly.
