check if gpm is running. if it is, do a "gpm -k" as root while in x and see if things change. i have a thinkpad x20 and had problems with the cursor under X and this kludge seemed to fix things. if it works then you may want to consider some scripts to keep gpm up while in console mode but down while in X. -- Sergio J.
