Cursor Problems



What:
SONY VAIO F490
650Mhz Intel, 18GB HDD
Debian 3.0 rev2 "woody", new install

Problem:
Can't get arrow shaped cursor in GUI or block in console.
Cursor is a three quarter inch square of vertical lines or hash in GUI. Top 
left corner of square is the point which works but is very hard on the eyes.
"gpm" is installed, but no gpmconfig.
No cursor of any kind on the console, root or user.
Square cursor in KDE and GNOME and Konqueror and all GUI stuff.
The GUI desktop peripheral setup is of no help
Computer has built in mouse and I use external PS/2 mouse. Either/or both work 
identically bad!!
Did not have this problem with RH 9 or Mandrake 9.0

Question:
How to set up mouse with small arrow cursor on either/or both mice??
How get "gpmconfig" if necessary?
How to make work on the console?

Regards, Bob
