I have experienced the mouse pointer problem. are you using nVidia
card? if so, I solved it by modifiing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
Under-- Section "Device"
Option "HWCursor" "Off"
after that mine looks like
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nv"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge"
Option "HWCursor" "off"
EndSection
