I reported for the earlier 1.7.0 version. The mouse cursor is

Maybe remove as much as possible from your xorg.conf? Xserver 1.7
should start with a very minimal xorg.conf. I am not quite sure
why you
need the NoInt10 and DefaultConnectorTable options.
The reason for "NoInt10" escapes me at the moment...
I actually commented the change in my xorg.conf file :-). If
"NoInt10"
isn't "true", there's a probe for the video BIOS which fails on the
Alpha (or at least, that *used* to be the case). Since I can't access
the video BIOS, I have to use the default connector table too. Are
you
claiming that the current X server on Alpha can now do something
useful
with a x86 video BIOS? If that's true, I *am* impressed.
