I looked again, long and thoroughly, clicking on little arrows to
expand things, and never even found Groups.
I get this as user :
[btth@Hbsk3 ~]$ dconf-editor &
[1] 12218
[btth@Hbsk3 ~]$
** (dconf-editor:12218): WARNING **: dconf-schema.vala:330: Unknown
property on <schema>, extends
(It puts the cursor on the next line (blank), but doesn't give me
my prompt back till I hit ^C.)
While I was at it, I also tried the same command as root -- and
saw nothing any different.

That did help, and I'm a lot happier than I was -- I have a
visible cursor again. Many, many thanks!
It's tiny, despite being set to size 48, but it is there. Now if
only I can get to whatever governs its size, color, etc. ...
