I stumbled upon the solution in Fedora8 if your using the Gnome desktop.

Under Applications>System Tools>Configuration Editor then Under
desktop>gnome>peripherals>mouse is the option locate_pointer.

The default is unchecked but when checked performs the function u want.

Hope this solves your problem. Never used it before but will now...
Thank you.

PS - It's a pleasant feeling to be able to contribute a minor something
to the list.
